List of schools in Nova Scotia

While providing guidelines, the government divides administration of public education over seven regional school districts and one province wide school district serving the province's Acadians.

Post-secondary schools consist of the provincial government operated community college system, Nova Scotia Community College and independently managed universities which receive some public funding.

A number of Nova Scotian schools combine elementary or the later grades of elementary with junior high or the earlier grades of junior high to form what is referred to as a consolidated school.

(Note: The term 'consolidated' is also confusingly used in the naming of a few elementary schools too in the province).

The following are all the public schools in Nova Scotia listed according to the board by which they are managed, and by county.
