Getting a place
How children get a place in Cumberland
The neighbourhood school
A home address sets the designated school in each board’s attendance area. Registration is with the board; a school outside the area admits only where there is space.
French-language schools
The French boards take rights-holders’ children by right and others by committee.
Catholic schools
Catholic schools are public here, run by separate boards that set their own admissions.
Independent schools
Fees and admissions are each independent school’s own; the province covers a share of costs for those that meet its rules.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- Bands, not ranks. A suppressed result gives no band; a school with both measures averages its fifths.
- The year. 2025/26, the latest open list.
- Boards and systems. Public and Catholic boards are both publicly funded here, in English and in French; an independent school answers to no board.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Cumberland or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
