Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected May 19, 2026

At the April 14 SEAC meeting, staff presented on EQAO and OSSLT accommodations, highlighting Peel DSB’s EQAO and OSSLT Success Hub and the use of assistive technologies such as Braille, scribing, and digital manipulatives. During discussion, administration noted they are reviewing software options to attach assistive devices for students with physical disabilities and committed to look into additional assistive technology for these students. The board is actively using online tools that track real‑time student data and wants to improve support for learners with physical disabilities and IEPs on the virtual assessment platform.This indicates an open planning phase for new or expanded assistive technology solutions and possibly additional analytics or training support for the Success Hub. Vendors providing assessment accommodations tools, accessibility add‑ons, and related professional learning could engage now to shape requirements around device integration, data reporting, and inclusive digital assessment environments.

EQAO/OSSLT Success Hub already exists and provides real‑time data to teachers; board is increasing awareness and use of digital manipulatives and accommodation tools.
