Can children of business visitors attend school?

[moldstadt]

Hello,

I am planning to come to Montreal, Quebec on a business visitor visa. My wife and daughter have tourist visitor visas.

Will my daughter be able to attend school while we are there? Will there be any costs for this?

Also, my daughter has special needs and requires a facilitator. Would the school cover this?

No - your daughter is not entitled to attend school. She needs a study permit to attend school and you will have to pay international student fees which will be around $15,000. If she needs a facilitator then you will need to pay for these costs as well in addition to the international student fee. The school will not cover these costs. Expect these costs to be quite high. Note there's no guarantee the study permit will be approved.
