- The kinds of school. The kind of school is what its province lists: elementary, secondary or both.
- The year. The provincial list for 2024-25.
- Boards and systems. Boards come in one language each, and where the province funds Catholic schools, as public or Catholic; independent schools stand outside them.
- Bands, not ranks. Ontario’s results are whole percentages with small groups left out, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
