How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Bands, not ranks. The PAT shares at the acceptable standard and at excellence are each placed by fifths among Alberta’s schools.
- 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.
- The year. Listed for 2025/26.
- The kinds of school. An all-grade school teaches from kindergarten through high school; elementary and secondary schools split those years.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Ekota or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
