Implement standardised testing

"We will implement standardized testing to address the current low rankings of our children in reading, writ- ing, science, and mathematics compared to the rest of Canada. By adopting this approach, which is already in place across the country, we can identify disconnects and develop effective strategies to improve grades and foster student success. Understanding our student’s performance is essential for helping us make informed improvements to the education system." — The Sask United Blueprint for Change, retrieved 2024-10-20
