What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Tofield and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Each school is elementary, secondary or all-grade by the grades it teaches; alternative, adult and online programs sit in a group of their own.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Public and Catholic boards are both publicly funded here, in English and in French; an independent school answers to no board.
