Down 6 points since 2022–23
Three-year change is published by the Ministry of Education: the difference in percentage points between the 2024–2025 and 2022–2023 assessments. Each assessment is written by a different group of students. EQAO does not report a result where fewer than 10 students wrote.
Six years of results

Results are the percentage of students who met or exceeded the provincial standard, as published by the Ministry of Education. A dash means no result was published for that year: EQAO does not report a result where fewer than 10 students wrote. No provincial assessment ran in 2019-20 or 2020-21, so those years are blank for every school and are never joined across. Before 2021–22 the Ministry published separate Academic and Applied Grade 9 results, which are not comparable with the single assessment published since.

How should I read the EQAO results for John Polanyi Collegiate Institute?
