1. The term "educators" includes teachers, school administrators and pedagogical support.
2. Excludes the educators for whom age or sex is unknown. The territories are excluded because detailed data by age and sex are not available for the territories.
3. In Prince Edward Island and Saskatchewan, educational assistants are not included.
4. Data for Nova Scotia combine full-time and part-time educators.
5. Data exclude publicly funded hospital and provincial schools, care, treatment and correctional facilities.
6. Includes educators in provincially funded schools (including "associated independent" and "historic" high schools) and excluding "independent" First Nations schools and postsecondary sites.
7. All educators in Lloydminster are included in Saskatchewan's counts and none of them are captured in the counts for Alberta.
8. Data for Alberta prior to 2004/2005 are not comparable with more recent data due to a change in methodology.
Notes: Due to the nature of the Elementary-Secondary Education Survey (ESES) data collection, these data are updated on an ongoing basis and are therefore subject to further revisions. These data are for publicly funded schools only and do not include private schools and federal schools.
Care should be taken with cross jurisdictional comparison. The proportion of educators (comprising a mix of teachers, administrators and pedagogical support) and their respective remuneration, differs in each jurisdiction.
For a brief description of this indicator, including the methodology, please see the Handbook for the Pan-Canadian Education Indicators Program.
