On September 6, 2017, the Premier and Minister of Education announced an independent review of Ontario’s assessment and reporting practices to make sure they are culturally relevant, measure a wider range of learning and better reflect student well-being and equity.
The scope of this review includes:
- classroom assessments;
- large-scale provincial assessments including Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) assessments; and
- Ontario’s participation in pan-Canadian and international assessment programs.
All Ontarians are invited to participate in this vital province-wide conversation about current approaches to student assessment and reporting in Ontario.
