How children get a place in L'Aéroport
Independent schools
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.
English schools in Quebec
Under the Charter of the French Language, a child goes to an English public school only with a certificate of eligibility, generally because a parent did most of elementary school in English in Canada. Everyone else attends French-language schools.
The neighbourhood school
Children go to the board’s designated school for their address, unless another school agrees to take them.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Inside L'Aéroport’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- The kinds of school. Each school is elementary, secondary or all-grade by the grades it teaches; alternative, adult and online programs sit in a group of their own.
- One school, two buildings. The ministry lists buildings, not schools: a two-building school has two entries here.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- The year. 2025-26, the latest open list.
- Boards and systems. French-language public schools belong to service centres (centres de services scolaires), English ones to school boards; private schools run themselves.
