Published EQAO results
The percentage of students meeting the provincial standard, as published by the Education Quality and Accountability Office. These are EQAO’s own figures. We do not combine them into a score, rank schools against one another, or describe any school as better than another — a single year of results at one school reflects a particular cohort, and reading more into it than that is not supported.
| Assessment | Meeting the provincial standard |
|---|---|
| Grade 3 reading | 92% |
| Grade 3 writing | 77% |
| Grade 3 mathematics | 83% |
| Grade 6 reading | 90% |
| Grade 6 writing | 89% |
| Grade 6 mathematics | 71% |
The surrounding area
Oakville's south-eastern corner, planned as a unit in the 1980s and bounded by Ford Drive and the Mississauga line.
Clearview is the most coherent area on this site, because most of it was laid out at once. It reads as a single planned community rather than an accumulation of eras: consistent housing, a connected internal road network, and parks distributed deliberately rather than left over.
