About OeS Canada Online School in Hong Kong

Ontario eSchool (OeS) is a private Canada online high school accredited by the Ontario Ministry of Education (BSID#882694). Our Canada online school has been established since the year 2007, and has introduced the internationally recognized Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) accreditation in Hong Kong. As a registered Canada online high school in Hong Kong, OeS has the authority to grant high school credits, allowing students to obtain the Canada high school online diploma without physically studying abroad or enrolling in a Hong Kong international school. This Ontario high school programme is taught by teachers with Ontario Certified Teachers (OCT) qualifications and provides real time LIVE teaching/support to ensure home school students receive a high-quality education on their way to a brighter future.

Moreover, since our Canada school in Hong Kong offers an officially accredited programme, it provides students with a reliable and dependable way to earn an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) in Hong Kong. Our Canada high school online courses follow the curriculum of the Ministry of Education, and are taught in an environment like other HK international schools. The students of our Canada online school in Hong Kong can enjoy a wide range of future options to further their studies, where they can apply for universities in Canada, the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Hong Kong, as well as other places around the world.

Studying the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) at our Canada school in Hong Kong

Features of Our Canada School’s Hong Kong Programme

Our Canada online school in Hong Kong can accredit students with the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), which is designed for Ontario high school students from Grade 9 to Grade 12. Our Canada online school offers more than 70 courses for home school students to choose from according to their own interests. All Canada high school online courses at our private school are conducted through an online, home school platform. Our Canada high school’s online class times and locations are flexible, therefore, it allows all home schooling students to study at any time in the comfort of their own home, as well as study at their own pace without any restrictions. They would be able to receive the same high-quality education as they would at an Ontario high school, or HK international schools.

Moreover, one major feature of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) is that there are no public exams. Our Canada school’s Hong Kong courses, by design, are 70% based on evaluations and daily performances, whereas 30% of the assessment is from in-school examinations, making it easier for Hong Kong or international school students to pace and cope with their studies.

Application to Local and Overseas Universities

Another advantage of studying OSSD through our Canada online school is the application portal. As a Hong Kong or international school student who is studying at an Ontario high School in the OSSD curriculum, they will use the 101 Application to apply for university in Canada. According to the Ministry of Education, 70% of the university quotas are allocated for 101 applicants, whereas only 30% are allocated for HK or international students. Therefore, the success rate of HK or international school students applying to Ontario universities through the 101 Application is much higher. This gives the students at our Canada online school in Hong Kong an advantage when applying for enrolment at universities.

Real-time, Face to Face Home School Online Teaching

Our Canada online school conducts real-time teaching of the Ontario High School Diploma (OSSD) courses through our home school online platform. All teachers have obtained the OCT certification, therefore, this ensures that our Canada school’s Hong Kong students receive the same educational experience as they would if they were studying in schools in Canada. Real-time teaching allows teachers to communicate and provide assistance on materials Hong Kong home school students need help on. This mode of teaching lets students stay in their comfort zone but also have the Ontario high school experience.

Small Class, HK International School Teaching Style

Our Canada online school in Hong Kong adopts a small classroom teaching format, like Hong Kong international schools, with a teacher to student ratio of no more than 1 to 6, providing more opportunities for teachers to cater to the needs of home schooling students. Also, in order to ensure that our Canada high school online courses are taught the same way as Canadian International Schools and Ontario high schools, all courses of the OSSD diploma are taught in English so students can practise more and build up their English competence via home schooling.

Flexible Class Times and Place

Many parents are worried about their children studying overseas in Canada by themselves, and are especially worried about their adaptability, time management or distractions that may cause unsatisfactory learning results. Not to worry! The Ontario High School Diploma not only provides the same learning environment as studying in Canada, but also allows our Canada online school’s Hong Kong students to do it locally. Students at our Canada online school can allocate their time and place for studying, without having a restricted timetable like other local or Hong Kong international schools that typically teach from eight to four. This flexible Canada high school online arrangement not only brings convenience and flexibility to students’ learning, but it is also a great opportunity to train students' self-discipline and learn good time management in preparation for furthering their studies in university.

IELTS Preparation Programmes

The International English Language Testing System, also known as IELTS, is an international standardized test of English language proficiency for non-native English language speakers. HK or international school students who intend to study overseas or immigrate must take this English test. Our Canada online school has not only developed an IELTS test preparation course for students, but they are also allowed to take the classes at any time and place to improve their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills, via home schooling.

Hong Kong or international school students in these programmes will become familiar with the test format and the skills that are required for different sections of the test. Moreover, once students of our Canada online school have completed the course, they will receive a certificate to showcase that they have achieved a certain level of English proficiency. This course also boosts home school students' confidence in enrolling in other HK international schools, or overseas, Canadian as well as Ontario high schools.
