- Boards and systems. Public schools belong to English and French-language boards (or districts); independent schools run themselves.
- The year. Schools come from StatCan’s ODEF of 2019–22, so a recent opening or closure may not show.
- The kinds of school. Schools are grouped by what they teach: elementary, secondary, every grade, and the alternative, adult and online programs.
- Which schools count. Counted: Burrows Central’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
