What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The open list of 2025/26.
- 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.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Ormsby Place and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
