The Early Development Instrument Report looks at how children in early education are developing in 5 key categories throughout the province. 

The 2012/2013 report, which was recently released, shows Mystery Lake School Division is in line with the rest of the province when it comes to maturity and communication skills.

Areas of improvement include physical health and well-being, where we scored an 8.4 compared to the province average of 8.7. In language and thinking skills the school division got a 7.6 while the province is at an 8.2.

The report, run by Healthy Child Manitoba, is conducted every two years, to help communities identify their strengths and needs in early childhood education.
