Market your school in print

Annually, we list well over 200 private and independent schools from across Canada. In addition to the detailed school profiles, the magazine explains the benefits of private schools to parents, profiles private school teachers and students and offers other features such as alumni profiles, advice about tutition and financing and detailed explanations of different private school options for parents.

Ourkids.net has been online since 1999 and we're the trusted resource for parents and families across Canada. In 2009, we received over 500,000 visits from 200,000 different search phrases and keywords, along with thousands of referrals from our social media profiles on sites like Twitter and Facebook. Our web team has over 50 years collective experience in marketing, design and development. Montessori schools, independent schools and boarding schools from across North America rave about our ability to drive traffic to their schools' websites ...and to their admissions offices. The site features videos, a blog, community section, photos and much more.
Promote your school directly to parents
Our Kids' private school expos offer schools an exclusive face-to-face opportunity to meet hundreds of parents that are actively searching for K-12 independent schools for their children. There's no other direct marketing tool as successful or as well-received as the annual private school expos. Held annually in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Oakville, the School Expos are Canada's largest school fairs that are proven for schools to develop quality leads and grow enrolment.
