Universal Screening Process for Grade 3 Students


Effective September 2016, the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) will be introducing a universal screening process for all grade 3 students across the TDSB. The purpose of this universal screening test is to:


  • Provide information to classroom teachers about the strengths and learning needs of each student in order to better support teachers in programming for students;
  • Help teachers to know when to bring a student forward to In School Team (IST) or School Support Team (SST) for programming suggestions;
  • Improve equity of access for all students to differentiated programming including the potential identification of students with a gifted exceptionality.

Grade 3 parents are asked to complete and return the permission form sent home this week.
