The Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT) measures whether students are meeting the minimum standard for literacy across all subjects up to the end of Grade 9. Successful completion of the literacy test is one of the requirements to earn an Ontario Secondary School Diploma. All students across the province write this test on the same date, usually in late March each year.
During the weeks leading up to the test students will be given instructional preparation for the the test. Booklets will be handed out to students taking the test and teachers will guide them through the process.
Normally the OSSLT is taken in late March or early April. More information will be come home as the school board releases the information.
