  • 1 Secondary Education in British Columbia It Is the Aim of the Kindergarten to Grade 12 Programme That All Students Graduate
    Secondary Education in British Columbia 1 It is the aim of the Kindergarten to Grade 12 programme that all students graduate with a sound education that is relevant to their lives. The goals set for schools are defined by standards that provide meaningful measures of students' progress. These standards are realistic expectations of what students should know and be able to do as they progress through 13 years of schooling. The provincial curriculum expresses these standards as expected "learning outcomes" for each subject or course and grade. These learning outcomes reflect patterns of student development and actual standards of achievement within the province. In the primary years, standards are based on expectations for children in their age range. In Grades 4 to 12 standards are based on expected learning outcomes for each grade or course. Meaning of Specific Terms Secondary education in British Columbia includes two levels: Junior Secondary Grades : Grades 8, 9 and 10 Senior Secondary Grades : Grades 11 and 12 Career programmes : There are three types of career programmes at the high school level: secondary school apprenticeship, co-op education, and career preparation. Secondary school apprenticeship programmes and co-op education programmes are made up of workplace-based training. Career preparation programmes consist of six courses at the Grade 11 and 12 level. These courses may either be Ministry-authorized or career preparation courses. The Ministry recognizes all career programmes that have been approved by the school district and registered with the Ministry. Dogwood Diploma : This is the British Columbia Certificate of Graduation for the province's secondary school programme.

It was under review is the reply from Ottawa! In 2013, there were four Meritorious Service Cross (civil) awarded in Canada. No MSCs had not been given since 21 April 2005. It was an odd mixture - of the four MSCs, one already had an MSC (military) and would receive an Officer of the Order of Canada within a year (Chis Hadfield); one already had the Order of Canada (Clara Hughes) and one had died (Sarah Burke). The other was to the Mayor of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec. All were well deserved. And all looked very political. This then raises the question, will the MSM (civil) again be awarded or will this become a little used medal. In the past, Canadians who received Olympic gold medals received Meritorious Service Decorations but this stopped with the review. I know several of the MSM (civil) recipients and they are outstanding citizens, well deserving of their honour and they wear the honour proudly. Suddenly, in the Canada Gazette of 02 January 2016, a large number of MSC and MSM (civil) awards were announced. No other announcement about what the review found or request for nominations.
