What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- Boards and systems. Boards here split by language only: English districts and a French-language board.
- The year. StatCan’s ODEF (2019–22) is the open source here; it may miss new schools.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. Inside Petit-Rocher’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
