What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Schools inside Salisbury and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- The year. StatCan’s ODEF (2019–22) is the open source here; it may miss new schools.
- Boards and systems. Public schools belong to English and French-language boards (or districts); independent schools run themselves.
