e estimate
1. Age distributions as of September 30th (or as close as possible thereafter) in the school year of full-time and part-time educators in public elementary and secondary schools based on data from the Elementary-Secondary Education Survey (ESES). Unknown ages excluded.
2. Based on a monthly average from September to April, Labour Force Survey.
3. Data at the Canada level exclude the territories. Data by age are not available for educators in the territories. These labour force data also exclude the territories.
4. Data for Nova Scotia combine full-time and part-time educators.
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 public schools only and do not include private schools and federal schools.
Figures may not add up to 100% due to rounding.
Care should be taken with cross jurisdictional comparisons. The proportion of educators (comprising a mix of teachers, administrators and pedagogical support) and their respective remuneration differ in each jurisdiction.
For a brief description of this indicator, including the methodology, please see the Handbook for the Pan-Canadian Education Indicators Program.
