What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every Alberta school with a PAT result, then averaged per school.
- The year. The province’s school list, 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Every public school has a board: English or French, and in this province public or Catholic too. Independent schools have none.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Erin Woods and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. An all-grade school teaches from kindergarten through high school; elementary and secondary schools split those years.
