  • 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.

  • Celebrating 90 Years of O.O.M.A. 1927
    THE LINK March 2017 Celebrating 90 Years of O.O.M.A. OVERSEAS OLD MARGARETIAN ASSOCIATION 1927 - 2017 O.O.M.A. “Old Girl” Pins OVERSEAS OLD MARGARETIAN ASSOCIATION The first Q.M.S. Old Girl’s gathering was held on June 11, 1927. The School was only six years old, so the fifteen Old Girls present at that meeting would seem a very good percentage of the total number. At that gathering, the Overseas Old Margaretian Association (O.O.M.A.) was formed. A Constitution was drawn up which stated, “The object of the Association is to be a bond of fellowship between former members of the School, and to help them to carry out the School ideals of loyalty, self-discipline and service.” It was at that meeting that the Old Girl’s blazer was designed, with its red and gold binding. For a number of years, since the first School Magazine appeared in the summer of 1928, news of Old Girls was put in the Magazine, but, for some years now, the Old Girls have had their own paper, most suitably entitled, “The Link.” It has been the policy of the Association, throughout the years, to keep dues for members as low as possible to enable everyone to join. It cannot be too strongly stressed that this “bond of fellowship between former members of the School” is a great asset to the School. Since 1945, the O.O.M.A. has had a Memorial Bursary Fund which, each year, has helped a child financially. It was founded “In memory of those former pupils who lost their lives in the World War of 1939-45.” The O.O.M.A.
