How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every Alberta school with a PAT result, then averaged per school.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Boards are set by language and, in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan, by faith: public or Catholic.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Erlton or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
