TDSB Partnership Programs.
As a participant in the TDSB’s Educational Programming Partnerships, Extra Ed is pleased to offer two programs which have been developed specifically to supplement and extend Ontario school curriculum. Our programs have been vetted and approved by TDSB to be delivered in-class, during instructional time.
Financial Literacy.
Exploring the concepts of currency, savings, debt, and investment, students of all ages are shown fun and interesting ways to learn about money. We empower young people to take charge of their financial lives through engaging and easy-to-understand lessons, exciting tournaments, and team-based activities which leave lasting and practical impressions.

Chess for STEM and SEL/ÉCHECS pour STIM et AS.
This program is designed to teach students crucial mathematical and scientific skills as they play and analyze the game of chess. We build towards specific outcomes from the Mathematics and Science & Technology curricula such as patterning, spatial reasoning, problem solving, and probability—all while exploring elements of social-emotional learning through chess play.
