The recent release of Ontario’s EQAO (Education Quality and Accountability Office) assessment results has raised serious concerns about the state of math literacy among students. The 2023 report revealed that 53% of students in Grade 6 and 48% of students in Grade 9 did not meet provincial math standards. This has led to worries among parents, educators, and policymakers about the effectiveness of the current education system and its ability to address student needs post-pandemic.
The pandemic has had a lasting impact on everyone, and it’s not anyone’s fault. COVID-19 disrupted not only our daily lives but also the foundational learning process for students. The long-term effects of the pandemic are still being felt, particularly in education. Many students missed out on crucial in-person instruction, especially in subjects like math, which require consistent practice and reinforcement. Now, they are struggling to catch up, and this has led to increased anxiety around math.
Parents and teachers must work together to support students in getting back on track. This is a global issue, and it will take collective effort to fix it. We all have to do our part to ensure students receive the personalized academic support they need to succeed.
