YORK Talks is a podcast for families wanting to learn more about The York School, Toronto's leading co-ed independent school delivering the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12. Established more than 50 years ago, The York School provides 730 JK to Grade 12 students a world-leading academic programme within a diverse, inclusive, and caring environment. The York School is a place where students thrive, faculty and staff inspire, and parents are supportive and engaged members of the community. In Season 1, host Natasha Estey spoke with school leaders, teachers, students, and parents in The York School community about different aspects of the school including topics like what choice, voice, and ownership means in the context of the Primary Years Programme, whether the IB Diploma Programme is worth it, and the role of athletics in learning. One of the reasons families choose The York School is its teachers. In Season 2, Natasha will speak with teachers from the Junior, Middle, and Senior Schools about their call to teaching, their craft, what a day in the life of their classroom is really like, teaching during a pandemic, and their views on the future of education among other things. A new episode will be released every two weeks or so and can be found wherever you get your podcasts.
