What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
- Which schools count. The area is Brokenhead plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- Boards and systems. English and French boards share the province, each with its own schools; there are no separate Catholic boards here.
- The year. The open list is ODEF (2019–22), which may still show schools since closed.
