What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Schools inside Bay Roberts and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Elementary means kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary up to Grade 12 (Secondary V in Quebec); a few schools take every grade.
- The year. The list is Statistics Canada’s ODEF (2019–22): schools opened since are missing, and some closed since may still appear.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
