What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. The French-language board covers the whole province, the English districts one area each.
- The year. The province’s 2025/26 list.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every BC school with a result on that measure, then averaged per school.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Tsinstikeptum 9 and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
