My daughter has taken two Blyth online courses. Lessons have real substance and quality, much better than the public school experience. Assignments are creative and engaging. Instructors are very accessible and supportive. We plan to do another online course this fall.

If you need a course that is not offered by one of the public school boards, this is a good option, although it is costly. The D2L course platforms are easy to follow/use. However, if your child has a Learning Disability and an IEP, note that you will have to advocate for those accommodations. Additionally, their final assessment includes an exam worth 30%, as opposed to having the 30% final assessment broken into two components: a final culminating activity/ISU and a final exam, which is standard practice in public secondary schools. This created an added level of stress to the 30% final exam, which is video-taped, as there were no review notes/materials provided by Blyth Academy other than a vague Quizlet to support students in preparing for the final exam. Also, there were no breaks allowed, despite IEP accommodations, during the video-taped exam, which again added more stress to the final exam.

it is a good chance to learn English through the oral conversation and discussion. The quiz and homework would help learner to understand the writing and the article structure.

Очень хорошая школа. Моя дочь учится в 10 классе. Програма понятная, оценки преподаватели ставят объективные. После окончания 11 класса планируем обучаться очно в 12 классе в Канаде в вашей школе. Спасибо за образование.

My son took a summer course with Blyth Academy online and he really enjoyed it. He wanted to get a head start on grade 12 courses so that he would have less to do in the term and could work. The entire experience was positive and he felt supported throughout the course. The course was reasonably priced and was set out well. The exam process was also done well. We would highly recommend this online process.

My son who is 16 this year, is currently enrolled in Blyth Academy Online which he does through a school here in Malaysia - Glory Academy. He will be going into Year 12 in September 2025. He has doubts now as to whether OSSD online is a good path to proceed with as he wants to further his tertiary education in a good or great university either in the UK, US or Canada. As a parent, I too want to give him the best and if you can assure me that obtaining his OSSD via Blyth Academy Online is the way forward, I would appreciate that. My name is Geraldine Ghouse and my email is geraldineghouse@gmail.com I am very satisfied with OSSD and I just want to convince my son that this is a great path to progress in. Please help

I think Blyth Academy gives students to move towards success and achieve their goals in timely fashion. They are more focused on students wellness by providing easy access to complete a course.. Students Likely to feel comfortable to participate to next level from high school to college or university setting without being pressured into dropping out from school system . I personally think, Anxiety, Peers pressure , environmental issues, lead to depression and poor grades . We are thankful and grateful to be part of Blyth Academy online learning program.

Blyth online was a very disappointing experience. My daughter taught herself the course - a teacher was not involved in her learning at all (except to grade her assignments/tests). The response time from the teacher took far too long and rarely addressed her questions or concerns. We would never recommend Blyth to anyone. We could have saved ourselves A LOT of money by going through TVO ILC - paying for Blyth did not provide my daughter with any aditional support or services whatsoever.

Blyth Academy Online is a true online school following the Ontario curruculum. The teachers are supportive, but the study materials are not easy!

Unfortunately we are not pleased overall with Blyth at the moment. Teachers are taking extensive time (months) to complete marking. I'm not sure if they have been assigned too many courses, but this is a drastic change from years previous. Teachers are also slow to respond to emails, which delays students' ability to move ahead. Instructions are not always clear. Virtual meetings should be offered to assist students when an email response is insufficient in providing clarification.

Please be aware that the online program does not allow for final exam to be reviewed by student and specific feedback is not provided. This is also common practice for tests which limits students from learning from their mistakes. They offer the option to have the exam remarked but there is no other information provided. Their concern is that exams can be copied to which I suggested an in person review which can be supervised. This was rejected. Be aware for the older grades and marks that kids will be using for university. Every high school has an exam review. How else does a student advocate for themselves? I would not recommend.

The course content had multiple errors in spelling, links to the wrong things (one actually went to an international gambling site), end of unit quizes attached to the wrong unit, the list goes on! We sepent a fortune on a tutor to properly teach our child so they properly understood the material for future classes (not with Blyth). The tutor was stunned at how poorly the information was presented. The kicker was I was accidently copied on an email that confirmed Blyth was aware of the issues the summer prior to my daughter beginning the course.

Our son took a Blyth Academy online course each summer (for the past 3 years). He had nothing but good things to say about each of the courses he took and would not hesitate to take future courses with Blyth if needed.

Choosing Blyth was a mistake. My son had several different teachers over the span of his Italian studies, none of whom communicated with the new teacher upon leaving. We were not informed when teachers were changing. We waited weeks and even months to get quiz and test results that only finally came after we complained. My son was expected to teach himself everything as very little actual instruction was given and teachers took a ridiculously long time to answer questions. I have been a teacher for over 20 years. I have never seen such a poor program.

Students support is absent. Not a single person reached out to my daughter or myself, communication, support, and monitoring were all very disappointing.
