What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. As the province lists them in 2024-25.
- Boards and systems. Each board covers a territory in one language and one system, public or Catholic; boards of different systems overlap.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Bands, not ranks. Each result is placed in a fifth of Ontario’s schools on the same measure; a school’s band averages its fifths. EQAO doesn’t report small groups, so no school is ranked to the place.
- Which schools count. Every school inside Trend-Arlington’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
