Enrol is the department's own count: VIC, February 2025 census, FTE (full-time-equivalent students, all sectors — a part-time or shared student counts as a fraction). Departments count enrolment in different ways and years, so a figure is comparable only with others from the same series. It is a size figure, not a quality one.

School score is shown only where the school itself publishes a signal — attendance (NSW & SA) or university destinations (VIC). n/a means no such figure is published for that school, so we will not print one: the remaining signals describe Footscray as an area and are identical for every school in it. Our estimate from open data — not ICSEA, not an official rating.
