Programs and Services

Student support / Inclusive education Surrey Christian School has an Inclusive Education (IE) department that supports students with diverse abilities through collaboration with families, teachers, and specialists, and through tailored educational plans. Admission for students requiring additional support depends on whether the school believes it can provide a suitable program, and the school considers capacity and available resources. English Language Learning (ELL) The school provides ELL support (including for international students) and may require an ELL assessment to determine the type of support needed. Transportation (school bus) The school offers bus service as a convenience for families through the Combined Christian Schools Transportation Society (CCSTA), which sets routes and operates the buses. Families indicate interest on the application form, and routing/pick-up details are typically communicated by CCSTA in late August after acceptance; service availability is not guaranteed for every area.

School Culture and Expectations

The school emphasizes Christian education and a vision of educating students “for wholeness,” with a focus on engaging God’s world in the servant way of Jesus. It states a commitment to helping students feel “loved and accepted,” develop their God-given gifts, and learn to understand themselves and the world in relation to the Bible. The admissions process highlights expectations of honesty, integrity, and cooperative family-school partnerships aligned with the school’s mission and values.

Transportation, Parking, and Getting Here

Surrey Christian School offers optional school bus transportation operated by the Combined Christian Schools Transportation Society (CCSTA), which sets routes, owns/operates buses, and handles discipline decisions. Families request busing by checking the appropriate box on the application form; availability is not guaranteed, and a student may need to be driven to a nearby stop on an existing route. After acceptance, the school forwards family contact information to CCSTA, which connects with families (typically in late August) about pick-up time and location. A shuttle service is also offered between the Elementary and Secondary campuses.

Enrollment

Families apply through the school’s admissions process, guided by the Surrey Christian School Admissions Policy and admissions priorities. Early Learning applications open October 1, and applications for September enrollment in Kindergarten through Grade 12 open on the first working day of November and remain open until grade levels are full. The school describes family interviews (notably for Kindergarten and Grade 8 entry) and notes that mid-year transfers are handled case-by-case. Students who require additional support may need to submit documentation by February 28 for consideration for the following year.
