The YCDSB operates schools in each of the nine municipalities in York Region.

Instructional services
The Instructional Services department is responsible for the development and delivery of the YCDSB curriculum, guided by the following criteria:
- religious education,
- alternative education,
- continuing education,
- co-operative education,
- student assessment, and
- equity in curriculum.
The 83 elementary schools are administered as part of an Elementary School Area; there are five areas in the school board.[3] Each area is administered by a Superintendent of Education, and the schools are divided into two groups, each of which has a Trustee.
The 15 secondary schools are administered as a single group with two Superintendents of Education. Additionally, each school has at least one trustee, and each trustee may serve duties for one or more schools.
The department also has a Superintendent of Curriculum & Assessment and a Superintendent of Education & Student Services.
