Division Assessment ProgramsComprehensive Assessment ProgramThe Comprehensive Assessment Program replaced the Early Identification Program (EIP) which operated in the Division from September, 1976 to June, 2000. CAP provides a screening process to assess each student’s strengths and weaknesses upon school entry and throughout the elementary years. It enables school personnel to understand each child’s needs and to develop an appropriate educational program. Each school has a review team comprised of the early childhood teacher, the public health nurse, the resource teacher, administrator and Child Guidance clinicians who review the results and identify children requiring intervention. Each teacher closely observes social/emotional growth, speech and language development, creativity, literacy and numeracy awareness, thinking skills and motor development. All children are given a basic motor screening assessment. Nursery to Grade 6 teachers administer the CAP early in the fall term.
