Admissions
Please note that any student who is moving from the JK/SK program to the school age program is not guaranteed a spot. This will depend on the number of spots that open up as a result of older children leaving BCCC.
Priority Sequence
Spaces for Bessborough Child Care Centre will be allocated in the following priority to students who are registered at Bessborough Drive Elementary & Middle School:
- All Bessborough students currently enrolled in Bessborough Child Care Centre
- Siblings of children currently enrolled at Bessborough Child Care Centre
- In district waiting list applications
- Out of district waiting list applications
Applicants will be processed according to steps 1 – 4 as spots become available.
Please note that parents may only use the child care program for which the child is registered. This will allow us to maintain proper staff ratios and to ensure the safety and well-being of all the children.
Waiting List
Prospective parents should meet the Supervisor and fill out a waiting list form (see below) to be put on the BCCC waiting list. There is no fee for this process. Please email the Supervisor at bessboroughccc@gmail.com to express interest along with the completed form.
Enrollment Process
It is anticipated that there will be a high demand for child care spaces for the 2024/25 school year. Timely registration is very important, as there may not be sufficient room to accommodate all requests.
Upon being accepted to BCCC, parents will confirm admission and are required to:
- Submit the completed registration package.
- Sign the BCCC agreement indicating that they have read and understood the policies and procedures of BCCC.
- Submit 1 non-refundable cheque that is equal to one month’s fee. This will be applied to the last month’s fee.
- 9 post dated cheques for the full school year – dated the 1st of September 2024 – 1st of May 2025.
Our space is shared space with the TDSB and may be needed and reclaimed for school purposes. This is determined on a yearly basis by the TDSB planning department. As a consequence, it is very important to realize that admission to the child care for 10 months and does not guarantee admission for your child in the next year school year.
