The EQAO assessments use a four-level scoring system to measure student achievement. Here's a general overview of what each level means:

Level 4: Indicates that a student has demonstrated a thorough understanding and application of the knowledge and skills required for their grade level. Level 4 represents a high level of achievement.

Level 3: Students at this level have shown a good understanding and application of the required knowledge and skills for their grade. Level 3 signifies meeting the provincial standard.

Level 2: Indicates that a student has demonstrated a basic understanding and application of the required knowledge and skills but with some gaps. Level 2 suggests that the student is approaching the provincial standard but has not fully met it.

Level 1: Students at this level have shown limited understanding and application of the required knowledge and skills. Level 1 signifies that the student is below the provincial standard.

It's important to note that these levels are not meant to reflect the student's overall abilities or potential but rather a snapshot of their performance on the EQAO assessments.

Please note that Level 1 is not recorded.
