Early last week the Northumberland Clarington Board of Education released the resuits of a provincial reading and writing tests, that had been undertaken province wide including 1500 Grade, 9 students in thie local public school system. In most cases the Northumberland Clarington students did better than the provincial average by a few percentage points. Localy 94 percent of students were writing at or above their grade level compared with 93 percent average across the province. In reading local students with the public board tested out at 93 percent compariug with a provincial average of 89 percent. Board administration and trustees'have stated they are pleased with the test resuits which reflects well for teachers and students. A few days later the separate school board in this area released the result of the 687 grade 9 students who had taken part in the provincial tests. They were similar, within a few percentage' points, with those of the public board students. Ninety-four percent of the 687 students are writing at 94 percent- at or above thecir grade level which compares with 90 percent province-wide. In reading the students registered 90 per cent locally comparing with a provincial average of 91 percent. The tests, administered to all Grade 9 students over a three week period last year, measured comprehension, grammar, speUling and punctuation, as well as reading ability, and the students' ability to express themselves. The public board adminis- tration is compiling a more comprehensive techuical report for release this month, including school-by-school results so that test resu Its the information can be used to better the current school programs. Ahl students get a personalized set of results stating how they scored and identifying weaknesses. The separate board has vowed to improve it's students' abilities in both reading and writing and especially to get more studeuts out of the Level 3, the lowest acceptable standard for underlaking Grade 9 work. The director of Education for the separate board states he feelsý they can do better and are making plans to do so. 1 u reading the separate board had 55 percent of students reading in the grade 3 level comparing wîth 52 percent in the public board system.
