Demographics
EDI
• The Early Development Instrument (EDI) gathers data
about children’s developmental vulnerability.
– EDI is a population-based tool that measures children’s
development in five key domains, providing a snapshot of how
developmentally ready children are when they enter Grade 1.
– Examining results by these domains helps to determine
strengths and needs of a particular population (community) so
that our communities have a better understanding of the
relationship between the way children develop and the
environment in which they live.
EDI – What We Know
• Research by staff at the Offord Centre has found:
– Birth circumstances have an important impact on children’s
readiness to learn at school
– Children with low birth weight and/or preterm births were more
likely to score in the lowest 10th percentile (vulnerable)
– Children with normal birth weight and full-term pregnancies
were least likely to score low in two or more readiness to learn
domains
EDI – What We Know
• Lower neighbourhood school readiness has been
associated with:
–
–
–
–

National Household Survey Data
• Provides data that was previously collected in Census
• Suppresses data for areas where the response was less
than 50% of the population
• Data definitions changed from Census to NHS making it
difficult to compare historically (some, but not all)
• Population Counts still with Census
