What this data can and can’t tell you
- One school, two buildings. Quebec lists each school once per building, so a school with two buildings shows twice, its building named.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- Boards and systems. Language, not faith, divides Quebec’s public schools: French service centres and English boards share the map.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Ascot Corner and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
