As you can see, Tomken Road Middle School has performed really well, closely followed by Hillcrest Middle School. There are a couple of schools here – namely Homelands Senior, and Queen Elizabeth Snr. whom do not have any posted information. The reason for this is because these schools only have Grades 7 and 8.
A couple of thing's to remember, readers:
- Middle School is only 2-3 years of schooling.
- Many Elementary Schools feed into one Middle School – which is why it's always tricky to show consistent high numbers.
I would not base my purchase based on Middle School ratings — a prime example is John Fraser Secondary School was possibly the best Secondary School in Mississauga (as rated by the Fraser Institute). The feeder Middle School to John Fraser Secondary is Thomas Street Middle – and according to the numbers shown above, it's an average Middle School.

Hi Tasneem! Thank’s for the question – I will respond via e-mail
Hi Amit! Please advice me a few top best middle schools in mississauga for my son who is in grade 6. thanks Jyoti
Hi Jyoti!
I have actually done a blog post on the “top middle schools” but I wouldn’t concentrate on the Middle Schools as much as the Secondary School. Your child will be attending Middle for possibly 2-years and then Secondary. Which school does your child currently attend?

Hi Amit
I am moving to Canada along withmy family in first week of May 2012. We have shortlisted Missisauga to live in. I need advice from you on two fronts (1) My daughter is going to be in 6th Grade as per indian board so which grade she will get in there now in Canada? She is born on Dec 18, 2000 (2) Which are the top three schools (I think junior high school what it is called there) as we will focus to get accomodation accordingly?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Poonam,
I work with Amit and it would be my pleasure to assist you finding a suitable property in the Mississauga area. When considering schools in Mississauga we place higher significance on elementary and secondary schools as they are in terms of years much longer than the short 3 year middle school experience (Please note that some area’s in Mississauga have Elementary schools that go up to grade 6). As such we would have a meeting over the phone or in person to asses your long term and short term goals. If you plan on staying in an area for longer than 5 years then your main consideration should be top highschools in the area as finding real estate in the best school districts is difficult constant moving around is not advisable. Your daughter would be placed in Grade 6 in Canada although if you wish to place her in grade 7 based on her skill the school level administration would help you with that. We need to tailor a strategy that takes into account REAL ESTATE in Mississauga and the TOP SCHOOLS matching them with your LIFESTYLE requirements I will be messaging you to setup a brief telephone or video conferencing meeting.
hello Amit
we are moving to missisuaga sometimes in June or July from North Carolina , US. My son goes to grade 7 here. So we are looking for grade 8. After researching so much on the net , I figured there is not much attention on middle school here. The standard of education is really good here. I don't here the same about public schools in Canada. I am looking for a school that will be challanging academically public or private. Accordingly we will look for a home near the school .
can you help us in finding a good school and an area for finding a home.
thanks
shivani
