Notes: (1) An Aboriginal student is a student who has self-identified as being of Aboriginal ancestry (see glossary). Beginning in the 2003/04 school year a student is considered Aboriginal if s/he has self-declared any time in the year 2003/04 forward. Before 2003/04, students were considered Aboriginal in any given year only if they self-declared in the September 30th enrolment in that year.

Notes: (1) The number of English as a Second Language (ESL) students dropped between 1998/99 and 1999/00 because of a change in funding policy. Starting in 1999/00, public school ESL students were funded in the supplemental ESL funding category up to a maximum of 5 years. Previous to this, there was no maximum. Funding for ESL services for independent school students is included in the regular operation grants issued to independent schools.

Notes: 1) Reflects enrolment at September 30th, including only those students who are taking most of their educational program by distributed learning (the DL program is considered the school of authority). 2) The numbers reported exclude cross-enrolment. (In 2006/07, changes in distributed learning legislation permitted crossenrolment in Grades 10, 11 and 12.) 3) As students can enrol in DL courses at any time, this will under-represent the actual number of students taking courses by distributed learning in a year. The annual total DL enrolment was 33,022 for 2006/07 and 48,491 for 2007/08. The projected enrolment for 2008/09 is 56,000.

Notes: (1) Children may be taught at home without the supervision of a certified teacher. Homeschool programs are not funded or accredited by the Ministry because parents choose the curriculum and learning resources. (2) Parents must provide each school-aged child with an "educational program". No official report is required. (3) Parents must register their homeschooled child(ren) by September 30th of each year with a public, francophone, distributed learning, or independent school.

Proficiency levels: Level 1: Students have a very limited store of scientific knowledge. Level 2: Students have adequate scientific knowledge to provide possible explanations and draw conclusions in familiar contexts. Level 3: Students can identify clearly described scientific issues in a range of contexts. They can select knowledge to explain phenomena and apply simple models or inquiry strategies. Level 4: Students can select and integrate explanations from different disciplines of science or technology and link those explanations to aspects of life situations. They can reflect on their actions and communicate decisions using scientific knowledge and evidence. Level 5: Students can identify the scientific components of many complex life situations. They can compare, select and evaluate appropriate scientific evidence for responding to life situations. Level 6: Students can consistently identify, explain and apply scientific knowledge to a variety of complex life situations. They clearly and consistently demonstrate advanced scientific thinking and reasoning. They can use scientific knowledge to develop arguments in support of decisions that centre on personal, social, or global situations. Notes: (1) PISA is administered every three years and assesses the skills of 15-year-old students. (2) In 2006, Science was the major domain and Reading and Mathematics were minor domains. (3) The OECD average was established with the data weighted so that each OECD country contributed equally. (4) Students were assigned to a level of science proficiency based on their probability of correctly answering the majority of the questions in that range of difficulty. (5) Proficiency level 2 has been identified as the ‘baseline proficiency’ level or the level of achievement at which students begin to demonstrate the scientific competencies that will enable full participation in life situations related to science and technology.

International Benchmarks: Low: Students can recognize explicitly stated information and make straightforward inferences clearly suggested by the text. Intermediate: Students can identify relevant information, make straightforward inferences, and begin to make connections across parts of the text. High: Students can use a variety of organizational features to locate and distinguish relevant information, make inferences based on embedded or abstract information, recognize the use of some textual features (e.g., figurative language), and compare and evaluate parts of a text to give a preference and a reason for it. Advanced: Students can distinguish and interpret complex information from different parts of a text, understand functional and organizational features, interpret figurative language, and fully justify preferences. Notes: (1) PIRLS is administered every five years and assesses the reading skills of grade 4 students. (2) The international results represent international medians (i.e. for each of the International Benchmarks, half of the countries performed above that level and the other half performed below that level). (3) Students were assigned to an International Benchmark based on their likelihood of correctly answering the questions at that benchmark and their likelihood of not being able to answer the majority of the questions at higher International Benchmarks.
