OakvilleIQ’s words
the summary sentences
Kept current
Live means under review, under appeal or approved but not complete; only the significant projects that have a page on OakvilleIQ are counted, not every minor folder. 1 school could not be placed and is left out. A proposal is not a building, and nothing here is a catchment boundary or a capacity figure.

The answer

As of September 24, 2026, 38 of the 63 Oakville schools OakvilleIQ can place have at least one live development application within 800 metres of the school’s address, and those applications propose 48,507 homes in total, counting a home once for every school it is near. St. Cecilia Catholic Elementary School has the most housing proposed around it: 10,120 homes in 9 live applications, led by Shieldbay Developments Inc.. The figure says where growth is proposed, not whether a school has room for it: boards plan capacity through their own accommodation reviews, and a proposal can be revised, refused or built years later.

Method, sources and what is left out

Each school’s position is the Town address point matched to the street address in the Ontario Ministry of Education’s school list (read September 24, 2026). Each application’s position and unit count come from the Town’s planning records as OakvilleIQ’s development database holds them, with the homes counted once per project, not once per folder. A school’s figure is the sum over live projects whose recorded point lies within 800 metres of the school’s point, as the crow flies. A project near two schools is counted for both.

Left out: applications too small to have a project page on OakvilleIQ, applications with no unit count (they add to the application count but not the homes), closed and denied applications, complete projects, and any school without a matched address. The radius is a walking distance, not a catchment: school boards set catchments and review capacity through their own processes, which OakvilleIQ tracks separately.

Source: Ontario Ministry of Education, School information and student demographics, 2024-25 final file published July 2026, under the Open Government Licence - Ontario. Enrolment is the figure reported in that file and is rounded by the publisher. This list is not a catchment map.
