As the classification data of each school was discrete in nature, categorized symbology was used to visualise the distribution of public educational institutes. For each category of educational institutes, different symbols and colours were used such that they could be easily told apart from each other. Some python code was used in order to geocode the educational institutes onto QGIS as only their ZIP codes were provided in the dataset.

Mixed school does not have a category on its own because it is being added into either secondary or tertiary category. The colour chosen for the labels are 3 different shades of blue. Starting from the light shade of blue to represent the primary school, followed by the medium shade of blue to represent the secondary school and lastly the darkest shade of blue to represent the tertiary school. There are overlapping points due to the closeness of the school as some are side by side each other, therefore overlap of labels are unavoidable.
