| 1. According to the age distributions on September 30th (or as close as possible thereafter) in the school year of full-time educators in public elementary-secondary schools based on data from the Elementary-Secondary Education Statistics Project. Unknown ages excluded. Percentage distributions may not add up to 100% due to rounding. 2. Based on a monthly average from September to August, Labour Force Survey. 3. Age distributions of full-time educators Include part-time educators in Nova Scotia. 4. Age distribution data on full-time educators for Canada exclude the territories as Northwest Territories and Nunavut do not report headcount data on full-time and part-time educators or combined, only full-time equivalent educator data. Yukon reports combined headcount on full-time and part-time educators without age breakdown. It also reports data on full-time equivalent educators. Age distribution data for the full-time employed labour force also excludes the territories. Notes: Due to the nature of ESESP data collection, these data are updated on an ongoing basis and are therefore subject to further revisions. The data presented in this table were updated as of March 10, 2008. These data are for public schools only and do not include private schools, federal schools and schools for the visually and hearing impaired.
