The neighbourhood school
No application round, no lottery: the address fixes the school, and the board handles the paperwork.
English schools in Quebec
Under the Charter of the French Language, a child goes to an English public school only with a certificate of eligibility, generally because a parent did most of elementary school in English in Canada. Everyone else attends French-language schools.
Independent schools
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- One school, two buildings. Where a school spans two buildings, each is listed, with its name in brackets.
- Boards and systems. Language, not faith, divides Quebec’s public schools: French service centres and English boards share the map.
- The year. The open list of 2025-26.
- The kinds of school. The levels follow each school’s published grades: elementary below Grade 7 or 9, secondary above, all-grade when it runs the whole way.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Saint-Michel-de-Bellechasse and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
