Elementary school in Toronto: Grades 1 to 6

Draft: this guide is waiting for a final check before it is listed in search engines.

Quick answer

Most children attend the elementary school that serves their address. Results from the Grade 3 and Grade 6 provincial tests, French programs, and support for learning needs are the main differences between schools.

Your local school

Each board assigns schools by address. You can ask to attend a different school, but it depends on space. See Changing schools.

Reading the results

Grade 3 and Grade 6 students write provincial tests in reading, writing and math. Each school page shows the share of students who met the provincial standard, how that compares with the typical school in the same group, and the share of local families with low incomes, which lines up closely with results.

French

English-language schools may offer Core French, Extended French or French Immersion. Each school page lists what it offers.

Support

If your child needs extra help, ask the school about special education support. See Support for learning needs.
