What the listed data shows

WikiSchools currently publishes 650 qualifying school profiles for Chennai district. Together, their annual records report 6,06,026 students and 24,872 teachers. Among profiles with usable staffing figures, the median is 23 students per teacher and the average is 26.

The source classifies 650 listed schools as urban and 0 as rural. Secondary-board information is present for 514 profiles; an unreported board often means that the school does not offer secondary classes, so it should not automatically be treated as missing information.
