I am pleased to provide you with this report on the Assessments of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, Primary Division (Grades 1–3) and Junior Division (Grades 4–6), 2007–2008. Included are student results for the current and previous years. To put these results in context, this report also provides information about the assessed student populations.

Across the province, EQAO data have helped inform teaching practices and continue to serve as a catalyst for improving student achievement. This report is intended to help you foster constructive conversations about improving student achievement and assist you in the planning of educational strategies.

Every student deserves the best outcome from the public education system. That is why, with the guidance of Ontario educators, EQAO continues to design assessments that are directly based on curriculum expectations. These assessments not only ensure that Ontario students’ achievement is measured at key stages in their education, they also assure people that all students are assessed against a common benchmark.

Large-scale testing results are just one of the many tools that support student learning. These results are a snapshot of achievement and should be considered alongside school-based information. Regular assessments conducted in the classroom remain the fundamental method of assessing and supporting students throughout their education.

I trust that this report will help parents, educators and all who are committed to a strong public education system work together so that all students achieve to the best of their abilities.

Sincerely,

Marguerite JacksonChief Executive OfficerEducation Quality and Accountability Office

ABOUT THIS SCHOOL OR BOARD REPORTTIPS

Each school or board is unique. To appreciate the distinctive character of a school or board, look at the contextual information to understand the features and characteristics of the community it serves.

�

Every assessment captures the performance of students at one point in time each year. Consider the results along with other information about students’ achievement in reading, writing and mathematics.

�

Exercise caution when interpreting results for small schools or boards. Results may vary considerably from year to year, and differences may look exaggerated. For example, in a school of 20 students, a difference of 10% represents only two students.

�

Trends may be difficult to identify or to interpret. This is especially true in small schools or boards, or in schools where there is a high turnover in the student population.

�

EQAO values students’ privacy. Results are not reported publicly for schools where fewer than 15 students participated, because it might be possible to identify individual students.

This report shows how well students have met curriculum expectations to the end of the Primary Division and the end of the Junior Division. Students complete a set of test booklets that allow them to show what they have learned in reading, writing and mathematics. The assessments are based on The Ontario Curriculum.

This report includes¨ results for this year

¨ a comparison of results over the past four years to aid in monitoring improvement

¨ information about the characteristics of the students who participated

¨ summary graphs showing the percentage of students achieving the provincial standard in reading, writing and mathematics

¨ detailed tables and graphs showing results for all levels of achievement, results for gender and participation information

¨ student questionnaire results

¨ an explanation of all terms used in this report.

HOW TO USE THIS REPORT

¨ Examine the contextual information to understand the similarities and differences between the school, the board and the province; the board and the province. Consider the challenges that any differences might present.

¨ Examine the results for reading, writing and mathematics.

· Are these results consistent with what you would expect? · How do the school results compare to the board and the province; the board

results compare to the province?· How do these results compare over time?

· What influence might students’ attitudes have on student performance (refer

to the questionnaire results)?

¨ Speak to school or board staff about the goals for school improvement related to reading, writing and mathematics.

The Education Quality and Accountability Office is an independent agency that gathers information about student achievement through province-wide assessments. Each year, all Grade 3 and Grade 6 students across Ontario take part in these assessments of reading, writing and mathematics. Individual results are reported to students and to parents and guardians. School, board and provincial results are released publicly.
