How should I read the EQAO results for Ponsonby Public School?
EQAO results show the percentage of students who met or exceeded the provincial standard on each assessment, shown alongside the Guelph elementary average for context. They are provided for information only and are not a ranking of school quality — academic outcomes are just one of many factors families may wish to consider.
How can I compare Ponsonby Public School to other schools in Guelph?
Open the Compare tool to line up Ponsonby Public School against up to three other schools — EQAO results, grades, board and catchment status side by side.
Does living in Ponsonby Public School's catchment guarantee a spot?
Not automatically. Falling inside the attendance boundary is the basis for enrolment, but it is not an absolute guarantee — placement still depends on school capacity, program availability such as French Immersion, and board policy. Always confirm current school boundaries and registration directly with Upper Grand DSB.

School information — including school boundaries, eligibility, EQAO results, programs and enrolment — is provided for general informational purposes only and may be inaccurate or out of date. Boundaries, eligibility, programs and enrolment can change at any time. EQAO figures reflect past assessment results, are shown per test relative to the city-wide average, are not a ranking, and do not predict any student's outcome. Always confirm current school boundaries and eligibility directly with the applicable school board before relying on this information.
