What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Maple and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Boards are set by language and, in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan, by faith: public or Catholic.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
