Hello Hamza,

It is great that you are looking into this information before arriving.

Generally for those who have studied outside Canada and would like to continue in high school, secondary school students who have recently arrived from other countries may have an initial assessment before they can enter a school.

Not all school boards provide a formal assessment, but it is useful to know what to expect.

You can find some helpful information in our Settlement.Org How is my child assessed to start school in Ontario? article.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
