The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board (DPCDSB, known as English-language Separate District School Board No. 43 prior to 1999[2]) is the separate school board that oversees 148 Catholic school facilities (122 elementary schools, 26 secondary or high schools and 2 continuing education schools or adult learning centers) throughout Peel Region (Mississauga, Brampton, Caledon) and Dufferin County (including Orangeville). It employs roughly 5,000 teachers; about 3,000 at the elementary level, and the remaining 2,000 at the secondary school and continuing education level, for 90,000 students.

Its headquarters is on Matheson Boulevard West in Mississauga.[3] The board was previously known as the Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board (DPSSB) before 1998.

History

The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board is the successor to The Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board, which was established in 1969 by the merger of eight small separate boards.

As of 1986 the Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board was Ontario's second largest Catholic school board.[4]

By 1999 the district had a co-operative transportation service with the Peel District School Board. During that year its school operation costs were $4.65 ($6.53 when adjusted for inflation) per square foot. The funding guidelines by a ministry were $5.20 ($7.30 when adjusted for inflation).[5]

As of 1999, there is one dual DPCDSB-Peel District School Board Catholic-secular public school.[5]
