How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Every school inside Carlington’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- The kinds of school. Schools are grouped by what they teach: elementary, secondary, every grade, and the alternative, adult and online programs.
- The year. Listed for 2024-25.
- Boards and systems. A school’s system is its board’s: the language it teaches in, and whether the board is public or Catholic.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- Bands, not ranks. A school with no reported result has no band; one with several averages its fifths.
