West Point Grey Academy (WPGA) is a leading independent co-educational day school founded in 1996. Located on a stunning 18-acre campus with views of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean, WPGA has quickly risen to become one of British Columbia's most prestigious academic institutions. The school follows the BC Ministry of Education curriculum, enriched by a global perspective and a wide array of Advanced Placement (AP) courses in the senior years.
The school’s motto, 'Magna est Vis Veritatis' (Great is the Power of Truth), reflects its commitment to integrity and intellectual curiosity. WPGA is particularly famous for its robust debating and public speaking programs, consistently producing national and world champions. Its philosophy emphasizes a balance between academic rigor, physical education, and outdoor exploration, making the most of its proximity to Vancouver’s natural beauty.
WPGA fosters a close-knit community through its house system and a focus on social responsibility. The school’s facilities are state-of-the-art, and it places a significant emphasis on technological literacy and future-readiness. It is a member of the International Confederation of Principals and maintains strong ties with educational leaders globally.
