What to check when choosing a school
Confirm through Ontario’s private-school information
the school’s legal name
school’s BSID
current authority to grant OSSD
A school identification number alone should not be treated as a blanket government endorsement. Ontario inspection of credit-granting private secondary schools concerns the standard of instruction in courses leading to the OSSD. It is not a ranking of schools or a guarantee of university admission.
Ontario courses and records
CNA courses follow the Ontario curriculum. Course codes, prerequisite requirements and credit values help students and receiving schools understand what has been studied. Contact Admissions for academic-record requests or questions about documentation. Records are released through authorised school procedures.
Ontario-certified: the gold standard for Ontario teachers
Every instructor at Canada Nord Academy holds Ontario certification. Ontario certification is regulated by the Ontario College of Teachers, the governing body for the teaching profession. Ontario certification requires a university degree, a Bachelor of Education from an accredited faculty, successful completion of certification examinations, and a clean criminal record check.
This means every CNA teacher:
- Holds at least one university degree in their subject area
- Completed professional teacher education at an Ontario faculty of education
- Is registered and in good standing with the Ontario College of Teachers
- Participates in ongoing professional development
- Is trained in online pedagogy and digital learning tools
Ontario certification is not an optional credential — it is a legal requirement for teaching in Ontario schools. When you enrol at CNA, you are learning from qualified professionals who meet the same standards as teachers in Ontario's top public and private schools.
Quality in day to day learning
CNA uses teacher and student feedback to improve lessons, learning activities and assessments. Guidance supports course planning and progress reviews so students can work towards clear academic goals.
School status questions
Is Ministry inspection the same as university admission approval?
No. Inspection relates to the school’s Ontario credit instruction. Universities and colleges make their own decisions about applicants.
