| Description |
Elementary Students: To register for school, the Community School Locator pinpoints the elementary community school that the student is eligible to attend, based on their home address and grade. Starting Jan 13, 2016 parents are able to complete the Student Application Form online. The form is available in: English, Arabic, Chinese, Czech, French, Italian, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Tagalog, Tamil, Ukrainian and Vietnamese. Upon completion, the parent will be invited to book a meeting with the school. Completing the form does not guarantee registration. A meeting is necessary for the school to review the Student Application Form with the parent, review original documentation requirements for registration, and discuss any educational or medical concerns the parent may have. Secondary School Students: Secondary schools are open to all students residing in the City of Toronto. Placement will be offered ONLY IF THERE IS SPACE AVAILABLE. New Permanent Residents arriving in Canada who would like to be placed in a TCDSB secondary school must contact our ORIENTATION CENTRE at (416) 393-5500 to book an appointment for registration.
