What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
- Which schools count. Every school inside Black Creek’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every Ontario school with a result on that measure, then averaged per school.
- What isn’t here. Inspection reports with ratings don’t exist here, and the lists give enrolment for one year at most.
- Boards and systems. Public and Catholic boards are both publicly funded here, in English and in French; an independent school answers to no board.
- The year. The open list of 2024-25.
