What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. English and French, public and Catholic: the board decides the system, and the address decides the school.
- The year. The 2024-25 list.
- What isn’t here. Inspection reports with ratings don’t exist here, and the lists give enrolment for one year at most.
- Bands, not ranks. Bands compare within Ontario only, measure by measure, then average: never a place in a league table.
- 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. The page takes in schools within Elms-Old Rexdale and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
