MESSAGE FROM THE LEADERSHIP
We asked Dr. Cinde Lock, Head of School at Pickering College for their message.
They offered insights into their vision, values, and the principles that define their leadership style.
Dr. Cinde Lock, Head of School
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Pickering College. Since our founding in 1842, thousands have walked our halls as Pickering College students. Our alumni have gone on to make a difference in just about every imaginable field and endeavour, both here in Canada and globally.
We are the only independent day and boarding school in Canada for students in Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12 that provides a comprehensive Global Leadership Program founded on Quaker values.
We celebrate diversity in all aspects. Whether through our commitment to providing a co-educational environment, or our unique approach to educating and developing the whole child through a focus on academic excellence, co-curricular distinction, character, and leadership development.
Our dedicated teachers deliver a fully integrated program that encourages students to realize their full potential within a challenging academic learning environment and where students are empowered to develop into courageous and compassionate global citizens fully equipped to contribute and provide leadership to their communities and the world at large.
As the new Head of School, I was drawn to Pickering College for its unique and inspiring community, not to mention its values, guiding principles and vision that embraces each student as an emotional, physical, and spiritual being.
I encourage you to proceed through these pages to learn how a Pickering College education uncovers all aspects of your child’s unique talents and gifts – academic, artistic, athletic and altruistic.

Head of School
