The District Education Council doesn’t think the new provincial math and science assessment is a fair assessment of students’ knowledge, according to the Times and Transcript.
The council discussed the latest poor results in a closed-door session last night and came out saying they didn’t think it was an accurate reflection of students’ skills. Councillor Ian Hebblethwaite says ether the instruction is poor or the test is poor.
The council decided to send an open letter to the Education Minister Brian kenny outlining their concerns.
