School Demographics — Grades 3 & 6

ELL, special education, and gender composition for the selected school — EQAO-sourced metrics combine Grade 3 and Grade 6. See the Reader's Guide for context on how school demographics relate to EQAO scores.

% Recent Newcomers

Students whose families arrived in Canada within the past 10 years, as a share of school enrolment (multi-year average from Ministry school-info data, up to 2024–25). English schools use the English-language newcomer rate; French schools use the French-language rate.

% Low-Income Families

Share of students from low-income families (multi-year average from Ministry school-info data, up to 2024–25).

% Parents without a Post-Secondary Degree

Share of students whose parents have no post-secondary credential (multi-year average from Ministry school-info data, up to 2024–25).

% First Language ≠ Language of Instruction

Share of students whose first language differs from the school's language of instruction (multi-year average from Ministry school-info data, up to 2024–25).

% English Language Learners (ELL)

ELL students as a share of all assessed students — using Reading cohort as proxy (G3+G6 combined, 2024–25)

% Special Education

Students with IEPs as a share of all assessed students — Reading cohort (G3+G6 combined, 2024–25)

Note: EQAO reports all students with special education needs (IEPs) as a single group; gifted students cannot be excluded from this figure.

Sex / Gender Identity

% of assessed students identifying as female or male — Reading cohort (G3+G6 combined, 2024–25)

Students who identify otherwise are not separately reported by EQAO.
