What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Lougheed or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- Bands, not ranks. Each result is placed in a fifth of BC’s schools on the same measure; a school’s band averages its fifths. BC masks small groups and counts resident students only, so no school is ranked to the place.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
