The Rwanda TVET School Locator is a tool used to search for and compare TVET schools in Rwanda. View the live map
The TVET School Locator allows you to search for your neighborhood school, search for schools within a radius of an address, search for schools within a province, and search for schools close to your current location.
There are four types of search results:
- Address/Location
- School
- Radius
- Province
An Address Search results in your neighborhood school being shown. If an address is typed into the search box the result lists the neighborhood schools (Level One, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, Level 5, Level 6, Level 7) that your child can attend. The map shows the geolocated address, the school locations, and the attendance boundary areas.
A Location Search results in your neighborhood school being shown. If you press and hold on the map for 2 seconds or click the Find Schools Around Me button the display lists the neighborhood schools that your child can attend. The map shows the location of the long press (or the geolocated address of the Find Me feature), the school locations, and the attendance boundary areas.
A School Search results in one school being displayed. If a school name is typed and chosen from the drop-down the detail panel of that school is displayed. The map shows the school location and attendance boundary area.
A Radius Search results in all the schools within a radius being displayed. If you click the More Schools button the display lists all the schools within a 2 mile radius. The map shows the center of the radius and the school locations.
A Zip Code Search results in all the schools within a zip code being displayed. If a zip code is typed and chosen from the drop-down the display lists all of the schools located with that zip code. The map shows the school locations.
Pass in the school ID or your address in order to target one or more schools. The URL should end with ?Schools=609720 or for multiple schools ?Schools=609720;609678. To view your neighborhood high, middle, and elementary school options, pass in ?Address=1234+N+Western+Chicago+IL+60622. Add &Type=HS or ES to return only high or elementary neighborhood schools. City, State and Zip are not required but should be added for more accurate results.
This example will return the neighborhood high school for a student residing at 1234 N Western. http://cps.edu/ScriptLibrary/Map-SchoolLocator/index.html?Address=1234+N+Western+Chicago+IL+60622&Type=HS
To show all schools, click the Magnifying Glass when the input box is empty.
To compare metrics such as Number of Students, Rating, and Percentile Scores in Reading and Math click the box to the left of the school name in the display list. A panel at the bottom of the screen will show the checked schools.
Click the down arrow on the panel to hide the Compare Schools Panel. Click the check box icon above the zoom buttons at the bottom left of the map to show the Compare Schools Panel.
Filters can be applied to the results in order to narrow your search. You may have to click the "More Schools" button to get a list of schools within a radius. The results can be filtered by:
- Grade Category
- Performance Rating
- School Classification
- Programs Offered (coming soon)
