A new study published by the Fraser Institute today finds that one out of every two Grade 10 students in British Columbia failed to meet the proficiency standard in math.
And participation rates in provincewide assessments have declined significantly.
The most recent B.C. Grade 10 numeracy assessment had a 77.7% participation rate, with only 48.2% of students meeting the proficiency standards.
By contrast: in 2015/16, 62.4% of students were proficient and the math exam was mandatory.
