Find an Ontario school and start enrolment
How do I enrol my child in school in Ontario?
Ontario’s school directory helps you find a publicly funded school. Enrolment happens through the local school board or school authority. Finding a school on the provincial map does not register a child or confirm a place.
Where to begin
- Search Ontario’s school directory by location or school name and check the grades offered.
- Use the board directory to identify the responsible board, language and school system.
- Contact that board about enrolment, school assignment and the registration process for your child.
- Follow its current document and application instructions, then confirm the next steps with the board or school.
Before you open the official service
- Home location or postal code
- Child’s school level and language needs
- The board’s current registration instructions
Keep your actual documents and account details off this website. Use the official service’s current checklist before applying.
What to check for your situation
Ontario has English and French public and Catholic systems. Admissions and school assignment depend on the relevant board’s rules; this directory does not make an admission decision.
Fees, processing times and document rules can change. This page helps you navigate; it does not confirm eligibility or replace the government’s instructions.
