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. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- The year. The 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. The board is the public body that runs a school; this province has English and French boards, each public or Catholic.
- Which schools count. A 3 km band around Kilkenny’s outline is included, as it is for every town on the site.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
