Lakeridge Heights

Went to this school in 2014, the building was really gross and I felt that many of the teachers didn't really effectively support their students. The special ed staff was also not great. Not to mention if you didn't have money for lunch they would give you two pieces of bread and a slice of slimy cheese. This school lacks decent funding and it really shows in the building's conditions and staff help. I remember there was a bad bullying problem as well. Neither victim nor bully got adequate support to stop and heal from the behavior. The counselors weren't great and many of them either couldn't support the students or outright bullied them. Also, it's way worse in terms of education and cleanliness than farm hill school despite being so close. My only thought is that farm hill caters to a more wealthy and white community than Bielefield. Looking back on it a lot of the school was not great towards PoC students and families. The previous principal was horrible, but maybe the new principal is better. Still, this school gave me a lot of trauma so I cannot say I recommend it.

Both of my boys have had positive experiences at Wesley thanks to the dedicated and flexible staff.

My son had his preschool here and his teachers were excellent. They were sensitive to the peculiarities and needs of each child and maintains a fun and happy learning environment. The curriculum was geared towards kindergarten readiness, since they were already given homeworks and being taught advanced things (math: patterns, addition). I highly recommend this school.
