The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board (DPCDSB, known as English-language Separate District School Board No. 43 prior to 1999) 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. The board was previously known as the Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board (DPSSB) before 1998.
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.
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 ($6.35 when adjusted for inflation) per square foot. The funding guidelines by a ministry were $5.20 ($7.10 when adjusted for inflation).
As of 1999, there is one dual DPCDSB-Peel District School Board Catholic-secular public school.
