Literacy prep runs on guesswork.

Most OSSLT preparation happens without anyone knowing where a student actually stands until the test is over.

Marking takes weeks

Teachers mark literacy work by hand, one piece at a time. By the time a class set comes back, the lesson it was meant to inform has already passed.

Students practise blind

Without a level against the EQAO rubric, a student cannot tell whether their writing sits at Level 2 or Level 3, or what would move it up.

Boards find out too late

Readiness data arrives after the test, when nothing about this year’s cohort can be changed.

From Grade 7 to test day.

One platform for lessons, practice and marked writing, aligned to the current Ontario curriculum.
