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. FSA scores and first-time graduation are placed by fifths among BC’s schools; international fee-paying students aren’t counted.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Collingwood and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- 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.
