The school is organized on a two-semester system and courses are offered at the Academic, Applied, Locally Developed, and Pre-Advanced Placement levels in grades 9 and 10, and at the University, College, Workplace, and Advanced Placement levels in grades 11 and 12.
Our school is a certified Eco-School at the Silver Level. Our community shows an ongoing commitment to the well-being of our environment through a comprehensive recycling and education program. The success of our co-op program is enhanced by the resources accessible to us in our immediate community. Our students benefit from a rich variety of work experiences due to our proximity to the Bay Street business district, Queen’s Park, Toronto hospitals, theatres, universities, colleges, museums, art galleries and many others.
Our location provides our students and teachers with unique opportunities. Being in the heart of Toronto and next door to the University of Toronto, the Royal Ontario Museum, and the Ontario Legislature, among others, allows teachers to enrich the curriculum. St. Ignatius College School is a diverse and progressive community where every attempt is made to meet the needs of all students.
The Chaplains of the Toronto Catholic District School Board strive to live an active Christian faith which embodies the theological virtues of faith, hope and charity. This vocation calls us to work as witnesses to the gospel values of justice, peace, reconciliation and compassion. We encourage students and staff on their faith journey.
At St. Ignatius College School, students are encouraged to combine their academic curriculum with extra-curricular activities.

We provide support to students in their transition from elementary school, throughout the secondary school years and to college, university or the workplace. We have workers, who support students in making appropriate course selections and providing information on graduation requirements, post-secondary planning, and career opportunities.
The focus of the Library Information Centre at St. Ignatius College School is to encourage our students to become information literate and lifelong learners. The library is fully automated and secure. Students and staff are encouraged to use the library for academic purposes.
