What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The open list of 2024-25.
- Boards and systems. Every public school has a board: English or French, and in this province public or Catholic too. Independent schools have none.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- Bands, not ranks. Ontario’s results are whole percentages with small groups left out, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Vaughan and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
