On the boundary map?
The WRDSB (secondary at least) map of who goes to what school hasn't been redrawn in years. So as new neighbourhoods pop up and explode some schools get filled faster than others. By shifting the boundaries of who goes to what school you can alter the population of those schools. That being said, there are politics with that. Parents move into a neighbourhood expecting a certain school, and then maybe that changes.
Cambridge is a prime example, five schools, all no where close to capacity. The map doesn't even make sense. GCI draws from areas directly around it, but also over in Clemens Mills too when it's closer to other schools.
