What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. A masked or missing result gives no band; a school with several results averages its fifths.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- Boards and systems. The French-language board covers the whole province, the English districts one area each.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- The kinds of school. An all-grade school teaches from kindergarten through high school; elementary and secondary schools split those years.
- Which schools count. Inside West Point Grey’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
