List of schools in the Toronto District School Board

The Toronto District School Board is Canada's largest school board governing 451 elementary schools, 110 secondary schools, 5 adult education schools educating over 289,577 students.

There are several types of schools in the TDSB:

• A Public School is a basic elementary School that is most commonly with K–8 schools but may appear with K–5 or K–6 as Junior Public School (used by the former Scarborough Board of Education) or Junior School (used by some schools, for instance, in the former Etobicoke Board of Education).
• In most cases, an Elementary/Middle School almost always appears with a K–8 school. The term, Junior Middle School/Academy, is used in most Etobicoke schools as well as Community School found in various places in the schools of the former Toronto Board of Education.
• A Middle School is an Intermediate school from Grade 6-8 level. Constantly, Senior Public School runs from Grades 7–8 level found in Scarborough schools. In the former North York Board of Education, a Junior High School exists from Grade 7–9, but in certain cases, grades 6–8.
• A Collegiate Institute is a basic high school with all types of subjects available (Arts, Tech, French etc.) in grades 9–12 levels of Academic, Applied, College, University, or Open.
• On the hands-on side, a Business and Technical Institute is a specialized school for students who prefer hands-on skills or who are not at a collegiate level. The term is only found in a few Scarborough schools and were originally called, Vocational School. In most cases, a High School Is a basic level school for students who can't learn at a collegiate level.
• Similar to a Collegiate level, Secondary School consists of all units of subjects but is more Academic based. Also used in Etobicoke more as a vocational school and the term Collegiate and Technical Institute is predominantly found at Danforth CTI.
• Like the Secondary or Collegiate types, an Academy is more of a title then a way to tell two schools apart but some schools may have a stronger academic focus on a subject then most other schools as a specialized component. (For example, Etobicoke School of the Arts has a strong academic focus on the Arts).
• An Alternative School may be for students who are at risk or failing or it may refer to schools that focus on independent study and are structured like university. In some cases, the EdVance or Diploma program is served to 18- to 20-year-olds who are out of or returning to school similar to a collegiate level.
• For adults over 21 who are returning to school or improving their skills, an Adult Learning Centres are offered.
• An Safe and Caring School is a special program for suspended or expelled students who are out of school or at-risk for improper behavioural issues at their home school.

The board also has oversight over 100 non-operating TDSB-owned school land and properties through their Toronto Lands Corporation (TLC) branch.
