Public Education ● K - 12

Canadian K-12 Schools

Canadian public K-12 schools are operated directly by school boards (School Board / Division), each of which has its own international student department.

顶录留学 has established long-term partnerships with several key school boards and can also assist with applications to school boards in other Canadian provinces.

About School Boards
School boards oversee admissions, tuition, homestay, custodianship, and ESL language support. Choosing the right school board is the first step in planning a K-12 study journey.
Minor students are required by law to have a custodian in place — all custodianship arrangements are managed by our in-house licensed RCIC.

Public Schools vs. Private Schools

Each type of school has its own strengths. 顶录留学 provides recommendations tailored to each family’s needs and the student’s individual situation.

Public Schools

  • Operated directly by school boards — large-scale and systemically stable
  • Predominantly local students, providing an authentic language environment
  • Well-equipped facilities with ESL language support
  • Relatively manageable tuition, suitable for most families

Private Schools

  • Small class sizes with a high teacher-to-student ratio
  • Some schools offer boarding (Boarding)
  • In-depth and individualized university/school progression guidance
