Situated at the foot of the British Properties, near the Upper Levels Highway and Taylor Way in West Vancouver is Westcot Elementary School. Westcot Elementary is a high achieving, socially responsible learning community where our teachers and families work together to create a holistic, child centered learning environment. The facilitation of student leadership is a thread that is woven into all of our academic programming, beginning with our young primary learners and continuing into the intermediate years. Active participation, combined with service learning and leadership opportunities are the tenets of student citizenship and community building at Westcot Elementary.​

The following schedule and guideline form our daily routines at Westcot. While these expectations are clearly communicated to the children and are reviewed regularly, reinforcement and support from home are appreciated.
