What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
- Which schools count. Inside Balgonie’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- Boards and systems. Public schools belong to English and French-language boards (or districts); independent schools run themselves.
- The year. ODEF, from 2019–22, is the only open list: newer schools may be missing.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
