Getting a place
How children get a place in Hawkwood
The neighbourhood school
Where a family lives settles it: the board’s map ties every address to one school, and a seat anywhere else waits on spare room.
French-language schools
The French boards take rights-holders’ children by right and others by committee.
Independent schools
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.
Catholic schools
Catholic separate schools are publicly funded here; each separate board decides whom it admits, Catholic families first.

How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- The year. The 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. Boards come in one language each, and where the province funds Catholic schools, as public or Catholic; independent schools stand outside them.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Hawkwood or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. An all-grade school teaches from kindergarten through high school; elementary and secondary schools split those years.
