General Information

Description: Upper Canada College (also known as UCC) is a private elementary school and private high school for boys in Toronto, Canada. Students between Senior Kindergarten and Grade Twelve study under the International Baccalaureate program.

Founded in 1829, Upper Canada College is the oldest independent school in the province of Ontario, the third oldest in the country, and is often described as the most prestigious preparatory school in Canada, having many of Canada's elite, powerful and wealthy as graduates. Modelled on the British public schools, throughout the first part of its history Upper Canada College both influenced and was influenced by government and maintained a reputation as a Tory bastion from its founding. However, today UCC is fully independent and the student and faculty populations are more diverse in terms of cultural and economic backgrounds.

Upper Canada College (UCC) is a private elementary and secondary school for boys in downtown Toronto, Canada. Students between Senior Kindergarten and Grade Twelve study under the International Baccalaureate program.

A link to the Royal Family is maintained through Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who is the College's Official Visitor, and a member of the Board of Governors.
