EQAO - Primary & Junior Divisions

EQAO Information for Parents/Guardians

Information regarding the 2026 EQAO Administration for Grade 3 (Primary Division) & Grade 6 (Junior Division) students will be released in the late Winter/early Spring.

EQAO assessments are administered to all Grade 3 and Grade 6 students in Ontario's publicly funded school system by the Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO), an independent agency of the Government of Ontario.  EQAO assessment questions are directly based on the expectations set out in The Ontario Curriculum, which is what teachers teach in the classroom every day. Therefore, your child does not need to prepare in any special way. Students will write the test during the school day and are simply encouraged to do their best and show what they know.
 
We invite parents/guardians to check out the information provided by EQAO, by visiting the About EQAO section of the EQAO website via this link: https://www.eqao.com/about-eqao/
