How children get a place in Ramsay
Independent schools
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.
Catholic schools
The province funds Catholic separate schools beside the public ones. Each separate board sets its own admission rules, usually giving Catholic families first place.
French-language schools
French-language boards admit the children of rights-holders under section 23 of the Charter (a parent whose first language is French, or who was schooled in French in Canada), and may admit others through an admissions committee.
The neighbourhood school
Where a family lives sets the school: each board draws a catchment around every one of its schools, and a child living inside it has a place there. Other schools take children from outside when they have room.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Counted: Ramsay’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
- The year. Listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. English and French, public and Catholic: the board decides the system, and the address decides the school.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Bands, not ranks. A suppressed result gives no band; a school with both measures averages its fifths.
