Tracking a cohort – grade 6 Board results

Tracking a cohort grade 6 – School results

Continuing our series on EQAO – Tracking a cohort – Grade 6 our school compared to the OCSB Board.  Take a good look at these two charts.  In the areas of reading, writing and math, students at St. Anthony are compared with their fellow students across the school board.

The data is interesting – here are some points about St. Anthony and the school board:

Math 12% of St. Anthony students did not meet the standard in Grade 3 but met it in Grade 6

5% of OCSB students did not meet the standard in Grade 3 but met it in Grade 6

Writing  88% of St. Anthony students met the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6

74% of OCSB met the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6

Reading 67% of OCSB students met the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6;

18% of OCSB  did not meet the standard in Grade 3 but met it in Grade 6;

38% of St. Anthony students met the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6;

62% of St. Anthony Students did not meet the standard in Grade 3 but met it in Grade 6;

These are amazing results!  in writing our students have made huge gains in reading (62%) better gains in math than the OCSB (12% to 5%)

and 88% of students met provincial standards in writing in grade 3 and 6 while 74% of OCSB students met the standard in grades 3 and 6.

One area of concern – in writing, 12% of our students made the standard in grade 3 but failed to make the standard in grade 6
