What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Inspection reports with ratings don’t exist here, and the lists give enrolment for one year at most.
- Bands, not ranks. BC publishes average FSA scores and graduation rates, masking small groups, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- The year. The province’s 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. Public schools belong to English and French-language boards (or districts); independent schools run themselves.
- Which schools count. Counted: Kamloops 1’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
