About Us
At St. Edmund Campion Catholic School, we pride ourselves on the strong partnership that exists among the home, the school and the parish.
How We Meet the Diverse Needs of Our Students
At St. Edmund Campion Catholic School, we are committed to Catholic education. Our students come to us with a variety of strengths and needs, united by our shared Catholic faith. Our prayer life, liturgical celebrations, sacraments, and faith-based values form the foundation of our program.
Our school policy includes routines and procedures that ensure a safe and welcoming learning environment for all students. The Code of Behaviour emphasizes mutual respect, conflict resolution, and self-discipline. Our Safe Arrival Program promotes consistent communication between home and school when a student is absent or late.
Our instructional programs are continually adapted to meet the individual needs of our students. Students who experience difficulty with regular classroom work are discussed within our school-based support network, and instruction is modified as needed. When necessary, we consult the Joint Team, which includes Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) staff such as a social worker, assessment and programming teacher, and other specialized personnel. Parents are always invited to participate in the review process and are kept informed of modifications and progress.
