W	Wendy Reuscher on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent academic school with good curriculum, teachers and principal. Requires lots of hard work but it helps to build up solid foundation for our child's academic development.

A	Anonymous Roti on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As a former student, I can say that Tempo has both pros and cons. Cons: -It gives students a particular mindset of superiority, and teaches that every public school has “poor education” and “no discipline.” -Rumours/ gossip spread quickly, being a small school -In lower grades, they did not allow students to use methods other than “the Tempo method.” If we did, then we got in trouble, even if the answer were correct. -They do not teach students the importance of sleep, healthy eating, avoiding smoking/alcohol (and yes, Tempo did have a vaping problem at one point) -It gives students low self-esteem. If a student gets poor grades, often times he/she is not encouraged to try harder, but rather is put more down. -There is no physical education for students in grade 6 and below -Excessive amounts of homework, even for elementary students -It does not provide any mental health support for students, be it for dealing with anxiety, depression, or anything of the like Pros: -Most teachers teach well, especially when it comes to grammar, geography, and basic maths -Having small classes, it creates a friendly atmosphere amongst students -It teaches the traditional way -Most students are well-mannered and fairly decent in school -It creates a sense of community within students
K	Khalid Osman on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As a former student my parents thought they were doing me right by sending me here. So much is wrong with this school. Any review from a parent is not valid because they didn't attend, rather their kids did. Notice every good review is by a parent talking about the idea of what tempo should be. None have experienced it themselves. As a parent now this would be the last school I'd ever send my kids. Save your money. And your children's sanity. It's not what you think it is.
R	Raj Johal on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As a former tempo student, I can say this is the worst possible choice if your child will be attending here after grade 5. The teachers and administration indoctrinate the students by telling them public schools offer " substandard education" and " lack of discipline." This not true but also a pathetic attempt of the staff trying to bad mouth other educational institutions in order to convince their few students to remain in the system. Leaving tempo was the greatest decision I ever made as it got me away from the terrible, spoiled, peers that created so much unnecessary drama throughout junior high. The teachers at public school give students more independence and don't baby their students like in tempo. After leaving tempo my grades went up significantly as the material in public schools are cop-able and is interesting unlike learning types of rocks for 3 months or Latin for 3 years. The new administrations since Dr. Mitchell left, under Mr. Battachio, and later Dr. Michael have ruined the school. They have implaced so many little nitty gritty rules and restrict students. Public Schools have necessary rules implaced but not so many that you get in trouble for staying in hallways after school or going on your phone during break or afterschool.
