This report includes the 2015 results, as well as results for
previous years, so you can track progress over time. You’ll
also find demographic and attitudinal information, which
provides context for interpreting the achievement results.
This school year was unique in that not all students
participated in the provincial assessments because of labour
action in the English-language public school system. As a
result, there is no provincial-level information in this report.

Assessing all students against a provincial standard provides
reliable and objective data at the student, school and board
levels and helps uncover important trends. By analyzing
EQAO data alongside other evidence, school boards and
schools can make informed decisions about how to improve
student learning and can track their progress toward their
goals.

At EQAO, we strongly believe that good information—in
the hands of dedicated professionals and school
communities—can help to identify areas for improvement
and inform targeted interventions. We are pleased to
provide reliable and useful information about student
achievement from Ontario’s provincial assessment program
for all partners in the education system.

TIPS
ABOUT THIS SCHOOL OR BOARD REPORT
The applied and academic
mathematics courses are
different and should be
considered separately.
This report shows how well students have met curriculum expectations for either the
applied or academic mathematics program to the end of Grade 9. Students complete two
booklets that allow them to show what they know in mathematics. The assessment is
based on The Ontario Curriculum: Mathematics, Grades 9 and 10.
Note: Students in locally developed
courses do not participate in these
assessments.
This report includes
–
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.
–
This assessment captures the
performance of students at one
point in time each year.
Consider the results along with
other information about
students’ achievement in
mathematics.
¨ results for this year;
¨ a comparison of results of the current and previous administrations to aid in
monitoring improvement and
¨ information about the characteristics of the students who participated.
Specifically, you will find
¨ summary graphs showing the percentage of students achieving the provincial
standard in either applied or academic mathematics;
¨ detailed tables and graphs showing results for all levels of achievement,
participation information and results for gender
¨ student questionnaire results and
¨ an explanation of all terms used in this report.
–
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 30 students, a
difference of 10% represents
only three students.
–
Trends may be difficult to
identify or to interpret. This is
especially true when groups are
small or in schools where there
is a high turnover in the student
population.
–
EQAO values students' privacy.
Beginning in 2012–2013,
results are not reported publicly
for schools where fewer than 10
students participated because it
might be possible to identify
individual students. Prior to
2012–2013, results were not
reported publicly for schools
where fewer than 15 students
participated.
HOW TO USE THIS REPORT
¨ Examine the contextual information to understand the similarities and differences
between this school, the board and the province; the board and the province.
Consider the challenges that any differences might present.
¨ Examine the results for applied and academic mathematics.
· Are these results consistent with what you would expect?
· How do the school results compare to the board and 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 the school or board staff about the goals for school improvement
related to 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 9 students in
applied and academic mathematics take part in this assessment across Ontario. Individual results are
reported to students and to parents and guardians. School, board and provincial results are released
publicly.
