What Are The Best Catholic Schools in Oakville?
||| CAP Rankings 2025
Real estate agents should know where the best Catholic schools in Oakville are for parents moving into the city. You know, those school districts that are the best combination of school competency and neighbourhood.
Most home-seekers rely on the Fraser Institute’s School Report Card to determine school districts to check out. However, the School Report Card spits out rankings based on only ONE year (as their default), without any consideration for consistency. In our opinion, consistency in a Catholic school’s performance is imperative to parents who are seeking long-term residency in Oakville.
Also, the Fraser Institute does not factor KEY district demographics into their rankings, which we believe is a major pitfall to their ultimate relevancy. Thus, we set out to do our OWN research to determine what really were the best Catholic schools in Oakville for parents… and created the CAP Rankings.
There are currently 16 Catholic elementary schools in Oakville, and by reading this article, you will be well on your way to finding out the Best Schools in Oakville that have Catholic teachings at its core. The CAP rankings are based on consistency over the last 7 years of EQAO test scores PLUS the demographics of each Catholic school district in Oakville.
For the seven years available previous to 2025, the five best Catholic elementary schools in Oakville are:
| Rank | School | 7-Year EQAO Level | CAP |
|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | St. Matthew | 3.20 |  |
| #2 | St. Marguerite | 3.10 | |
| #3 | St. Andrew | 3.04 | |
| #4 | St. Bernadette | 3.04 | |
| #5 | St. Teresa of Calcutta | 3.03 | |
The above rankings are determined by EQAO scores, consistency, and how performance fares against the expected performance, given the district’s demographics. CAP colours are assigned by the team at SusiHomes, based on their recommendations.

FAQ
CAP rankings more reliable than the Fraser Institute rankings?YES. The Fraser Institute does not incorporate the consistency of a school’s performance into its rankings; they are sorted by a single-year’s performance only. They also do not take into consideration the natural support some teachers receive simply by working in higher-income neighbourhoods with less single-parent families. The SusiHomes CAP rankings does all of this, so yes, in our informed opinions, the CAP Rankings are more reliable.
Look, the Fraser Institute rankings are fine. We use them, ourselves, in cities outside our service areas. We use the same EQAO data as they do, but we factor in a school district’s demographics more prominently, and consistency needs to be considered in any ranking model to begin with. The SusiHomes CAP rankings can easily be seen as more reliable. And yes, we are looking to attract clients, but only the wise ones who realize this.
They are both recommended schools. We’re just a little more sure that the Blue Cap schools are “good” schools. But we have good feelings about Green Cap schools, as well. Blue Cap schools are the “Primary Recommendations” Susi gives to her clients, and Green Cap schools are the “Alternate Recommendations”.
Here, that is not possible. Your Realtor can set it up for you. It’s a lot of work, but your Realtor should work hard for you. Susi’s clients, of course, receive this service in full.
Yes. Your Realtor can do this for you, for any Cap Schools revealed here. It’s a bit of a process, however, and they may curse you for asking. Susi has the systems already set up for ALL Cap Schools.
Most, if not all, of the Blue Cap or Green Cap schools are in neighbourhoods that Susi would recommend to her clients .
Any good Realtor will see these warning signs, like water damage or poor foundation. You should also get a home inspection done on the house before finalizing the deal; buying a home without one is a dangerous game.
If you need School-District-Specific Demographics, for an in-depth review of the democratic makeup of the school district alone, SusiHomes’ clients have full access to those. Otherwise, Realtor.ca is your best free source. They have neighbourhood demographics in a broader sense.
