What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Every school inside Warfield’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- The year. The province’s school list, 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Public schools come under a board of one language; independent schools are run privately.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- Bands, not ranks. BC publishes average FSA scores and graduation rates, masking small groups, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
