Best Schools in Toronto (Public)
The SUSI Rankings are plainly the most reliable when determining the rankings for the best schools in Toronto, in our informed opinion. This city generally has elementary schools that rank about average compared to the rest of the schools in Ontario (comparing EQAO pass-rates), faring especially well in Uptown, Midtown, the East End, and the West End. There are 153 rank-able, public elementary schools in Toronto (plus an additional French-Immersion-only schools). There are 78 of them in the Midtown-Uptown areas, and another 75 of them located in the Lower Toronto areas, which includes the Beaches in the East End and the High Park/Swansea area in the West End. See the “Lower Toronto” rankings below the “Midtown-Uptown” rankings. (For Catholic schools, go here.)
