What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- One school, two buildings. Quebec lists each school once per building, so a school with two buildings shows twice, its building named.
- Boards and systems. Public schools here answer to a service centre (French) or a school board (English); private schools answer to their own boards.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Wotton or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
