How Are We Protecting Privacy?

Results for OnSIS and Statistics Canada variables are suppressed based on school population size to better protect student privacy. In order to achieve this additional level of protection, the Ministry has used a methodology that randomly rounds a percentage either up or down depending on school enrolment. In order to protect privacy, the ministry does not publicly report on data when there are fewer than 10 individuals represented.

* Percentages depicted as 0 may not always be 0 values as in certain situations the values have been randomly rounded down or there are no reported results at a school for the respective indicator. * Percentages depicted as 100 are not always 100, in certain situations the values have been randomly rounded up.

The information in the School Information Finder is the most current available to the Ministry of Education at this time, as reported by schools, school boards, EQAO and Statistics Canada. The information is updated as frequently as possible.

This information is also available on the Ministry of Education's School Information Finder website by individual school.

Descriptions for some of the data types can be found in our glossary.

School/school board and school authority contact information are updated and maintained by school boards and may not be the most current version. For the most recent information please visit: https://data.ontario.ca/dataset/ontario-public-school-contact-information.

The Private Schools industry has grown minimally over the past five years, with rising government funding and elevated tuition fees managing to keep revenue growth slightly above the inflation rate. Government funding initiatives are a crucial revenue stream for private schools, while tuition fees remain the primary funding source for staff salaries, facility upkeep and extracurricular programs. The industry’s enterprise count has expanded, boosting employment numbers. This trend, alongside sectorwide pay rises, has led to an uptick in the industry's wage bill. Elevated purchase expenses have also weighed on the Private Schools industry, contributing to weaker surplus margins, which the industry states in place of profit margins. Private schools' esteemed reputation and perceived pathways to top-tier universities continue to fuel enrolment growth. In 2025, enrolments are set to surpass 1.5 million students. However, a marginal dip in the number of Catholic primary schools symbolises evolving societal attitudes towards religiosity and the impact of this on education choices. Revenue is expected to have inched upwards at an annualised 0.1% over the five years through 2024-25. This includes an anticipated drop of 1.3% in 2024-25 due to inflation, as the unadjusted revenue figure of $37.1 billion exceeds the revenue figure recorded in 2023-24. Increased federal government funding, which is slated to surpass $21.0 billion by 2027-28, is set to drive significant growth in industry revenue over the coming years. However, private schools will likely face greater scrutiny surrounding funding policies, which could lead to variations in funding structures. A forecast boost in the school-age population presents an opportunity for industry expansion. At the same time, legislation capping international student numbers at Australian universities may harm international student enrolment trends at private schools. While this would apply downwards pressure on revenue, high demand for domestic enrolments could partly offset potential reductions in demand from international students. Overall, industry revenue is forecast to rally at an annualised 2.3% over the five years through 2029-30 to $41.6 billion.

New Zealand law states that formal education is compulsory for children aged 6 to 16 and free for most students. The education system comprises three main types of primary and secondary schools: state schools owned and funded by the government, state-integrated schools (schools with a special character integrated into the public school system) and private or independent schools. Approximately 85% of New Zealand children attend state schools and just over 11% attend state-integrated schools. State-integrated schools include Catholic, Steiner and Montessori schools. Funding for education has improved in New Zealand over the five years through 2024-25, boosting revenue for the industry by an anticipated annualised 3.9% over this time to $12.9 billion. The lion's share of this extra funding was allocated initially in 2020-21 in response to the pandemic and the need to migrate education services online. More recently, revenue has grown at an estimated 4.4% in 2024-25 as the population aged 14 and younger has risen, bringing with it more impressive enrolment numbers and, in turn, elevated funding. Most schools in the industry do not record a profit. Instead, they report a surplus used to hire additional teachers outside the government budget. This surplus can come from charitable donations or non-compulsory student fees for government schools. Private schools, on the other hand, are afforded additional revenue streams through enrolment fees paid by students' families. These additional funds are then spent on offering staff higher wages or reputation-enhancing endeavours supporting elite sporting programs. In the coming years, the industry will struggle with falling teacher numbers and swelling enrolment numbers, generating significant demand for schools to expand their number of classes to accommodate. More intermediate and high schools will merge, allowing for more efficient use of funding, which is projected to strengthen at an annualised 0.5% through the end of 2029-30, reaching $13.2 billion.

These records were created to compile census data and statistical information concerning enrolments in all registered schools in Victoria. The enrolment statistics are compiled under many different headings.

For the years 1952-1970 (individual annual registers), data has been compiled for:

1. Age distribution in Primary, Secondary, Junior Technical and Post-Primary schools section;

2. Grade distribution in Primary, Secondary, Junior Technical and Post-Primary school sections;

3. Primary, Post-Primary, Secondary, and Technical pupils in types of schools or sections;

4. Age-Grade tables for Primary, Secondary, Junior Technical and Post-Primary schools, separated by grade and providing figures for boys, girls and total enrolments;

5. Age-Grade tables for Secondary schools and sections, by types of schools (High schools, Junior Technical and Central), separated by grade and providing figures for male, female and total enrolments;

6. Part-time students in Secondary schools;

7. Age distribution of pupils in Registered schools by denomination and separated by Primary/Secondary;

8. Grade/Form distribution of pupils in Registered schools by denomination and separated by Primary/Secondary.

For the years 1969-1978 (a single register), data has been compiled for:

1. Summary of enrolments in all Registered schools, by denomination (Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Jewish, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Seventh Day Adventist, Undenominational), separated by year and providing figures for:
a) number of students
b) primary enrolments
c) secondary enrolments
d) total enrolments.

2. Summary of enrolments, separated by denomination and providing
a) school number
b) school name
c) year/grade
d) primary enrolments (by year)
e) secondary enrolments (by year).

Total figures are provided at the bottom of each page for all statistical types and closed schools have been crossed off the lists.

Common statistics for all years in the series are:

1. Age-Grade tables for all Registered schools
2. Age-Grade tables for all schools by denomination, separated by year and providing figures for boys, girls, primary, secondary and total enrolments.

The information in the individual annual registers for 1952-1968 us all hand-written, whereas some information in the individual annual registers for 1969 and 1970 is in the format of a computer printout. The single register covering the years 1969-1978 contains all hand-written information.
