Enrollment requires a meeting with the Principal with the Parents and child present, completion of the admission form, signing of the Agreement on Education, payment of a non-refundable one-time admission fee (tariff available), and completion of the medical form. Admission is year-round, subject to places being available; if there is no place, the child can be placed on a reserve list.

Required documents include the Admission Form, Agreement on Education (two originals), payment of the non-refundable admission fee, payment of a deposit, previous school certificates or report cards, and completed CSW documentation (consents and declarations). Scans of previous documents are initially sufficient but must be followed by signed originals, and proof of identity (ID or Passport) for both parents and child is required at submission. Downloadable documents include the Preschool Agreement and Tuition Fees. Elementary admissions: The School operates an open admission policy and welcomes new students at any time during the academic year if places are available.

REQUIRED DOCUMENTS: Admission Form; Agreement on Education (two originals); payment of a non-refundable registration fee; payment of a deposit; previous school certificates or report cards; completed CSW documentation (consents and declarations). Scans are initially sufficient; signed originals are required later. The School requires an ID, a Passport, or an equivalent document at submission to confirm identity of both Parents and child. STEPS OF ADMISSION PROCESS: 1. Fill in the online application form ‘Apply Now'; 2) Submit report cards and school certificates (scans initially, originals later); 3) Placement testing (at the Principal's discretion, depending on documents, grade level, and language proficiency); 4) Application review (admission may be granted, denied, or the student placed on a waiting list); 5) Sign the Agreement on Education and complete the Admission Form; 6) Pay registration fees and other required payments; 7) First Grade Admission procedures (if the child attended The Canadian Preschool, School Readiness Diagnosis is needed; if not, an English/Polish test is required plus a homeroom teacher's evaluation; parents may be asked for a psychologist's opinion; testing may involve an interview with the School Principal; testing dates are communicated to parents).
