Branksome Hall is a girls' day and boarding school in Toronto, established in 1903, with 910 students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12, including 54 boarders from 13 countries. The school teaches only the International Baccalaureate: the Primary Years Programme to Grade 6, the Middle Years Programme in Grades 7–10, and in Grades 11–12 either the full IB Diploma or a more focused IB Select pathway. Boarding fees cover Grades 7–12. Day applications close December 1, while boarding applications are reviewed on a rolling basis; Grade 9–11 boarding applicants write the school's math and English tests or send SSAT scores, and all boarding applicants are interviewed.
