Grade 12 Provincial Assessments 2022-2023

Dear Parents & Guardians of Grade 12 students,

As part of the updated graduation requirements, students must complete three provincial assessments by the end of their Grade 12 year:

1) Grade 10 Numeracy Assessment (NME10)

2) Grade 10 Literacy Assessment (LTE10)

3) Grade 12 Literacy Assessment (LTE12)*

*French Immersion students must also write Évaluation de littératie de la 12ᵉ année (LTF12)


Notes on NME10 and LTE10:

• Students were automatically registered to write NME10 and LTE10 in their Grade 10 year

• Assessment results can be checked through MyEducation; a minimum score of “1” is required to pass these assessments

• Grade 12 students without a minimum score of “1” on their NME10 and LTE10 assessments must contact Ms. Musgrave right away

Notes on LTE12 and LTF12:

• Grade 12 students are automatically registered to write LTE12. In addition to LTE12,
  Grade 11/12 French Immersion students are also automatically registered to write LTF12

How can students prepare?

The links contain pre-assessment activities to help students prepare (videos, sample questions, and sample assessments). It is very helpful for students to try a sample assessment to see how the online assessment is structured. If you have any questions about the pre-assessment activities, please contact Ms. Larson or Mr. Sambrook. There will also be practice sessions in the library at lunchtime leading up to each assessment.

When and where will students write assessments at MSS?

Assessments at MSS are written on a laptop or desktop computer provided by the school in the Library Learning Commons during set dates from the Ministry (please see the MSS schedule on the following page). The assessments are designed to be two hours with an additional hour if needed. Students should arrive at their assessment 15 minutes early. Students can write any assessment up to three times before they graduate. Please contact Ms. Musgrave to register for re-writes.

Reporting Results and Re-writes:

Provincial graduation assessments use a four-level proficiency scale for reporting student achievement results. Assessment scores will appear on students’ report cards/transcripts and can be accessed through MyEducation. Please note that some universities require a score of 3 (“Proficient”) for admission. Please check with your post-secondary institution for more information.
