What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Port Mann and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
- The year. The 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. Two systems share the province, English and French, each run by its own board or district.
- Bands, not ranks. Top fifth means a result among the best fifth of BC’s schools on that measure; the card shows a school’s average fifth.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
