Ontario School Board Achievement Metrics and Progress Indicators

2023-2024 data from the Education Quality and Accountability Office and Ontario School Information System tracks student performance across Ontario school boards. It includes Grade 6 EQAO reading results, Grade 10 OSSLT literacy test results, credit accumulation by Grades 10 and 11, and four- and five-year graduation rates for Grade 9 cohorts. The Government of Ontario provides this data for monitoring educational outcomes.

Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between grade_6_eqao_reading_results and later graduation_rates_grade_9_cohort across different board_type.
• Model progress_in_grade_10_oslst_results as a function of board_language and district_name to identify systemic performance gaps.
• Benchmark credit_accumulation_by_end_of_grade_10 and credit_accumulation_by_end_of_grade_11 against provincial averages for financial and program planning.
• Track year-over-year progress_in_five_year_graduation_rates_grade_9_cohort for specific board_name to evaluate intervention effectiveness.

Strengths

• Includes multiple key performance indicators: 6 distinct achievement and progress metrics per board.
• Data is sourced from two authoritative agencies: EQAO and the OnSIS system for 2023-2024.

Limitations

• Unknown row count prevents assessment of sample size and statistical power.
• Geographic scope is limited to Ontario, Canada, restricting generalizability.
• Temporal coverage is a single academic year (2023-2024), limiting longitudinal analysis without historical data.
