Provincial test results help drive improvement

October 25th, 2018

At the October 24 board meeting, Superintendent David Garbutt presented the 2017-18 Provincial Achievement Test results for Grades 6 and 9, as well as the Grade 12 Diploma Examination results. Teachers and principals use these results to make decisions about instruction and support student progress.

The division will work with schools to make plans where improvement is needed. These results also reinforce our Education Plan priorities of student diversity, student-teacher relationships, numeracy and literacy.

Other headlines from the meeting include:

  • Student enrolment continues to decline
  • Live from New York—it’s BCHS!
  • School board looks for input on division citizenship awards
