This video provides important information about the Nova Scotia assessments.
Students in Grades 3, 6, and 8 complete provincial assessments in their language of instruction, in reading, writing, and mathematics.
Data from provincial assessments provides teachers with information to help plan instruction and support student learning. They inform parents and guardians about how their child is doing in reading, writing, and mathematics.
The department, regions, and Conseil scolaire acadien provincial use the information about student achievement to inform decision making.
Provincial assessments are just one of many tools used to monitor student learning.
