What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. Public schools come under a board of one language; independent schools are run privately.
- The year. The schools are those in ODEF, 2019–22; check with the board for any opened since.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- 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.
- Which schools count. Inside Flatrock’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
