What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. As the province lists them in 2024-25.
- Boards and systems. Public and Catholic boards are both publicly funded here, in English and in French; an independent school answers to no board.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Carson Grove - Carson Meadows or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
