What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. 2025/26, the latest open list.
- Boards and systems. The province’s public schools are run by districts in English and a French-language board; independents run themselves.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every BC school with a result on that measure, then averaged per school.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Roberts Creek and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Elementary means kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary up to Grade 12 (Secondary V in Quebec); a few schools take every grade.
