It is variable even within an area depending on the school system and can be changed on a yearly basis so wouldn't make plans based on school bus pick-up.

Generally speaking, parents are responsible for making arrangements to drop children off and pick them up from school.

Read the bylaws of the Toronto School Board- in your case, it falls under the Peel School Board.

You need to do your own research rather than just putting forth a random question expecting others to answer it !

Also depends on whether you win a French immersion spot, catholic board, English or French, etc. So many variables plus difficulties hiring enough bus drivers. Yes many parents are expected to drop off their own children at school.

Hi Umbreen ,

Vacant houses are available but expensive. I am still looking but not yet finalized. Many factors need to considered i.e. good school , safe neighbor hood , near to GO ... Lets hope for the best.

Did you already land and found some thing in Mississauga ?

Thanks & Regards

Ok. Best of luck dear. Its really hard to find good house from May - Aug as its the peak time. I came to know that in Sep onwards its much easier with many options.

I am in touch with some reliable Desi realtors , if you want I can share the info with you. I also get the feed back about those realtors from there clients from Middle East.

If you have some info , please share as I believe in team work.
