Brentwood College School
Mill Bay on Vancouver Island is the perfect backdrop for Brentwood College School—a
co-ed, grade 9-12 boarding school with an important difference: student choice.
"The choice to be here creates a supportive community of students from over 40
countries who gain the independence and skills to succeed in the post-secondary
world," says Liam Sullivan, deputy head – student life. Brentwood also stands out with its
Tripartite program, which places academic classes in the mornings and athletics and arts
on alternate afternoons. "This allows students to choose from the many extracurricular
opportunities we offer," Sullivan adds.
