What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. StatCan’s ODEF (2019–22) is the open source here; it may miss new schools.
- Boards and systems. A school’s board decides its language; the province funds no separate Catholic system.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- Which schools count. Each school is placed by its address point; those inside Grand Falls or within 3 km of it are here.
- 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.
