Over the past number of years, BC has been reviewing the provincial curricula for all subject areas and grade levels simultaneously under a common framework. Needless to say, this is an ambitious undertaking that is having a significant impact on teaching and learning in our schools.
We encourage all parents to learn more about the new K-12 curriculum. The Ministry of Education has a website that provides some excellent information about the curriculum, the development process and the framework that is being used.
The Ministry of Education has also just issued a new Interim Reporting Order. The new Order provides districts with guidelines on communicating student progress, as well as the flexibility needed at a more local level to continue to move ahead with new practices in student reporting.
