The Assessment of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, Primary and Junior Divisions are tests of the reading, writing and math skills students are expected to have learned by the end of Grade 3 or Grade 6.  Each Grade writes EQAO for two hours per day and for three days.  At Baden our Grade 6 students will write EQAO on May 23, 24 and 25.  Our Grade 3 students will write EQAO on May 28, 29 and 30.

These curriculum tests are designed to assesses how well Ontario’s public education system is doing in developing students’ reading, writing and math skills. EQAO provides reliable large scale data which forms the basis for many decisions made at both a system and provincial level.
