Burke Mountain — Schools
A focused reference on schools + catchments in Burke Mountain, drawn from the broader Burke Mountain area page — pulled out as its own page so it’s scannable on its own.
SD #43 (Coquitlam) catchments split across multiple schools. Smiling Creek Elementary serves much of the central core; Leigh Elementary handles Lower Hyde Creek and northeastern Hazel-Coy. Secondary catchment overlaps Pinetree Secondary (IB World School + École Pinetree French Immersion) and Centennial Secondary — the boundary runs through the plan area.
SD #43 has identified a planned new middle school for Burke Mountain; the opening target moves around and the district is the place to confirm it for a specific year. The Pinetree IB Diploma is an application stream within SD #43 — admission is competitive, not pure catchment. If a particular school or the IB stream matters, both the attendance area and the application window are easy to confirm with the district.

Catchment is set by the property address, not the neighbourhood. Look up any address in the School District 43 (Coquitlam) locator, which is the only source that settles it.
