Hello Folks,
My Name is Nishant Shah and i have recently secured a PR from Canada. i have 2 Kids (aged 6 and 2) and am planning to land in July. I had a few questions about schooling in Canada and would appreciate if you can help answer.
1 - I Understand that public education is free in Canada and we do not need to pay tution. Bus and Food is also included. Would be great if someone can reconfirm.
2 - My main concern is choosing a good school for my daughter. Can someone throw light on the school selection process. From what i have learnt, the kid will need to go to the school closest to their home. How true is this? Also, if there are 2 schools within the same proximity, can we choose which school she will attend?
3 - if we find a better school a little far from our home, can we approach them for admitting our child?
Nishant.
