Learn about education in Canada
In Canada, it is legal for children to receive an education. It is the responsibility of the parent to ensure that the children are registered and go to school. Depending on where you live, there are several study options available to you. There are also different ways to engage in those communities. This is because each province and district has its own school system.
Each plan is the same, but there are important differences. The difference reflects the priorities of the provincial or regional government.
Canada does not have a departmental organization or national education system.
