Manitoba bringing back provincewide Grade 12 testing of English and math after COVID-19 hiatus
The Manitoba government is planning to bring back provincewide Grade 12 tests in English and math starting next year.
The tests were suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic – a time during which the government announced plans for less-formal assessments of student achievement in Grade 10.He says reviving the final exams will be a good way to gauge whether the assessments in the earlier grade are working and if students are improving.
Ewasko, a former teacher, says details of the Grade 10 assessments are still being worked out, but they will likely be an evaluation over time instead of a sit-down exam like the Grade 12 tests. The Manitoba School Boards Association says some people may be surprised by the return of the Grade 12 tests, as there was a perception in some quarters that they were being eliminated permanently.
