Bank Street is a leader in education and a pioneer in improving classroom practice. Since 1916, we've been committed to understanding how children learn and grow. From early childhood centres to schools, hospitals and museums, Bank Street has built a national reputation grounded in the principle that our graduates know how to do the work that is right for children. At our Graduate School of Education, we train educators in a model that integrates human development, learning theory and sustained clinical placement.

The Bank Street Education Center drives system-level change to help design better educational experiences for both children and adults.
The mission of Bank Street College is to improve the education of children and their teachers by applying to the educational process all available knowledge about learning and growth, and by connecting teaching and learning meaningfully to the outside world. In so doing, we seek to strengthen not only individuals, but the community as well, including family, school, and the larger society in which adults and children, in all their diversity, interact and learn. We see in education the opportunity to build a better society.
