Burnaby South Secondary is a public high school in Burnaby, British Columbia part of School District 41 Burnaby.

Developed as a Year 2000 school the building incorporated a significant amount of technology, including monitors in all the halls and classrooms in place of PAs and a card swipe attendance system.

A unique morning broadcasting class exclusive to Burnaby South named Television Production (TVP) delivers the morning announcements every day in the form of a news report called RATV. Partner to the Television Production program is the Broadcast Communications class (BCOM) where students create short movies and series that are aired during lunch time.

The site also hosts the BC School for the Deaf that was previously known as the Jericho School for the Deaf when it was located in Vancouver.
