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 | 90% |
| Grade 3 writing | 78% |
| Grade 3 mathematics | 90% |
| Grade 6 reading | 96% |
| Grade 6 writing | 90% |

The surrounding area
Between Third Line and Dorval Drive — the town's older working edge, and the most school-dense area on this site.
West Oakville is the most functionally mixed of the seven areas. Speers Road and the rail corridor put employment land through its middle, which keeps it from reading as purely residential and also gives it the town's largest concentration of everyday, non-boutique commerce.
