Ratings and data
Academic information
Westview Secondary holds a Fraser Institute rating of 3.3/10 and a provincial rank of 139/252. The 3.3 rating is considered below average for British Columbia, and the school's rating history shows a steady decline from 5.2 to 3.3 over recent years. While the provincial rank places it in the middle tier of BC secondary schools, the low overall score indicates ongoing challenges in standardized testing and core academic metrics. However, the school strategically offsets this by focusing heavily on vocational, technological, and athletic academies rather than purely traditional academics.

Editorial review summary
Parent and community reviews present a mixed picture. On the positive side, parents highly praise the school's specialized programs—particularly the Microsoft IT Academy, BCIT Automotive partnership, and sports academies—as well as the dedicated, caring staff. The modern facilities, including the all-weather turf field and state-of-the-art theatre, are also frequent points of praise. On the negative side, some historical community discussions highlight concerns about peer influences, student behavior, and a lack of academic focus among parts of the student body. Additionally, recent school updates mention that classes are currently very full, making course schedule changes difficult for students.
