How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
  • Which schools count. Counted: Alderwood’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
  • Boards and systems. A public school belongs to a board of one language; in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan a board is also public or Catholic. An independent school runs itself.
  • The year. The province’s school list, 2024-25.
  • What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
  • Bands, not ranks. Top fifth means a result among the best fifth of Ontario’s schools on that test; the card shows the average of a school’s fifths.
