The methodology

The data behind this score

The Roost Rating weights AEAM above PAT, plus Roost field research, capped at 95. A missing source has its weight shared across the ones that remain, never counted as a zero. This school got 62.5% survey · 37.5% exams.

This rating comes from two independent sources: how this school’s Grade 6 students did on Alberta’s provincial exams, and the AEAM survey of parents, students, and teachers.

Fraser (not scored)

7.1/10Shown for comparison, but it does not affect the Roost Rating. Half of it is the average exam mark we already read ourselves, so scoring it would count one set of exams twice: why.

AEAM survey measures · Fall 2025

Each parent, student, and teacher survey measure beside the Alberta average. The verdict is Alberta Education’s own evaluation — it weighs the school’s achievement band and its own trend, so a measure can sit below the Alberta number without a concern or issue flag, or carry one while above it.

Context

Classes and enrolment

Typical class size

K to Grade 3: 21Typical for these grades across CBE schools: 22from 17 classes
Grades 4 to 6: 24.5Typical for these grades across CBE schools: 25from 10 classes

Each figure is the middle class size in those grades for 2025/26, among the classes whose sizes are published. A class is one teacher with one group of students, so a group with several teachers counts once per teacher, and in junior and senior high each course section counts. The CBE figure is the middle of every CBE school's own figure for those grades, across Alberta's release.

Students enrolled

608 students in 2025/26 (preliminary)

Enrolment moves with boundary changes, new schools nearby, the grades a school offers and how many children live close by. Most schools here had fewer students in 2020/21, the first school year of the pandemic.

Context only: these describe the school's situation, not how well it teaches, and neither is part of the Roost Rating.

Enrolment

How enrolment works

Grades: K-6
Programs: Early French Immersion
Address: 150 Westminster Dr SW Calgary, AB T3C 2T3
Neighbourhood: Westgate (location, not catchment)

CBE schools are assigned by home address. Westgate School is the designated elementary only if your address falls inside its catchment — confirm yours with an address lookup. Alternative programs are application-based and many run an admission lottery — they are not guaranteed by address. See how and when applications work.

From Westgate School's own page

“Today, Westgate School has students from kindergarten to grade 6 in French Immersion.”

From the school's own CBE page — care arrangements and class placements change; confirm with the school before you decide.
