Asking and answering questions about educational excellence is a priority at Branksome Hall. In 2016, Branksome Hall opened the doors of the Chandaria Research Centre (CRC), joining the ranks of the few school-based research centres in Canada and internationally.

The CRC marks the legacy of the Chandaria family’s commitment to our school and their belief in the value of a Branksome Hall education.

Our goal is to initiate new research and explore educational excellence in teaching and learning, well-being and international mindedness in the school.

The CRC acts as a hub of collaboration and creativity at Branksome Hall by supporting inquiry projects and sharing new research with the community—including our employees, students, parents and alums.

By sharing research-informed ideas and findings, the CRC plans to make a positive impact on teaching and learning at Branksome Hall in Toronto, Branksome Hall Asia in South Korea, and beyond.

Collaboration is a cornerstone value for the school. The CRC also seeks to partner with schools and organizations on projects that complement our research priorities and advance the future of education.

We share information and knowledge widely through conferences, partnerships and publications.

Research Areas

Our research areas of interest focus on teaching and learning, well-being, international mindedness and leadership. We are especially interested in research that focuses on female and non-binary student experience and uses empowering, participatory approaches to engaging faculty and students.
