School Within a School, also known as SCH(school)OOL, promotes widespread collaboration, innovation and creativity in schools. This is a way to put ideas into action and remove some of the restrictions of traditional schools.

Think back to your time in public school. If typical, your school was likely quite fragmented with everything organized into distinct disciplines and departments. Your regular day was also highly segmented - cut into regular blocks of time - math, pack up head into science, pack up and head into English, pack up and so on and so on. This long standing approach in mainstream education has been identified by researchers, educators and students as falling behind the times. Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB), like many School Boards across the country and the globe, are exploring approaches to better meet the needs and desires of students, staff and the broader community.
