BC Schools - Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA)

The results of the Grades 4 and 7 BC Foundation Skills Assessments in Numeracy, Reading and Writing from 2007/2008 to 2020/2021, and in Numeracy and Literacy for 2021/2022 onward. The results are considered a new dataset for 2021/2022 since the assessment combines reading and writing skills to form the Literacy component, and because a new vendor administered the assessment resulting in a different user experience.
