The Provincial Government is inviting input from stakeholders and the public on a proposed new high school assessment and evaluation plan for Newfoundland and Labrador. Feedback from the consultation process will inform the development and finalization of the plan, as part of the ongoing work to modernize and transform the K-12 education system to make it better for all those connected to it.
Until March 27, 2024, feedback can be provided at engageNL.ca. This will include an online questionnaire and the option of providing a written submission.
In September 2023, the province announced that it will engage with its partners in education to introduce a new evaluation framework for high school students that will include a new literacy and numeracy assessment and modular course evaluation. This step marked the elimination of public exams from the public education system.
