What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Boards and systems. The province’s public schools are run by districts in English and a French-language board; independents run themselves.
- The year. This province’s list is ODEF, compiled by Statistics Canada in 2019–22: a few years old.
- The kinds of school. The levels follow each school’s published grades: elementary below Grade 7 or 9, secondary above, all-grade when it runs the whole way.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Amber Trails and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
