What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. English and French boards share the province, each with its own schools; there are no separate Catholic boards here.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Sun Peaks Mountain 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.
