Agincourt International Academy (Ministry-Inspected Private Secondary School, BSID: 883230) has been serving the academic needs of the Greater Toronto area community since 2003 under the name Ontario International Institute. We offer an array of college and university preparation courses, specializing in the streams of Mathematics, English, Science, and Social Science. Over the course of many years, AIA has been proud to have assisted hundreds of students in meeting their academic potential, as well as realizing their dreams of obtaining the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. Furthermore, AIA staff and administration have enthusiastically taken part in helping students as they make the leap into post-secondary education. The partnership that develops between AIA students and staff is such that our mentoring and student advocacy programs often bridge the transition from secondary to post-secondary institutions of a student’s choosing.
Agincourt North is located in Agincourt which is a neighbourhood and former village, once referred to as "hero town" by the citizens that lived there. The village of Agincourt was officially founded with the establishment of the Agincourt post office, opened in June 1858 by John Hill. The settlement was named after the site of Henry V's decisive English victory over French forces in 1415. Agincourt has one of the largest Asian communities in Toronto, visible in the signage of the many shopping malls that proliferate in the neighbourhood. The East Indian and Indo Pakistani community are also well established in Agincourt.
