Ratings and data
Academic information
Prince Charles Elementary currently holds a Fraser Institute rating of 3.7/10, placing it 926th out of 1,015 elementary schools in British Columbia. This rating is considered below the provincial average, reflecting significant academic challenges. The data suggests that a large portion of the student body may struggle with standardized Foundation Skills Assessments (FSA) in literacy and numeracy. However, this score often correlates with complex socio-economic factors rather than solely teaching quality. The school serves a community with diverse needs, including a high number of English Language Learners and students requiring learning support, which can impact raw testing data.
