Hello! I'm Theo, an undergraduate student at the University of Toronto. Through my curricular research in the Munk One Program, I've developed a passion for promoting equity and accountability in education—particularly in large-scale educational assessment. As part of the 2024 Laidlaw Scholars cohort, I'm excited to investigate an apparent achievement gap among students in English- and French-language schools in Ontario on province-wide EQAO tests. With this study, I hope to better understand how this disparity may have endured or changed over time, to what extent, and as a result of what factors.
