Alternative Education
An Alternative Education level course is an option for students who are unable to meet the learning outcomes of the Core or Basic course, even after the Adaptive Dimension has been applied.
The decision to move from a core or a basic level course to an Alternative Education level is based on formal and informal assessments of both academic and cognitive functioning. A student’s educational history must be considered by the team. Communication with both student and parent /guardian is necessary for the move to an Alternative Education level course.
An Alternative Education level course does not meet the requirements for a SK Regular high school diploma nor admission requirements for most post-secondary institutions.
Core or Basic level courses may be taken concurrently with Alternative Education level courses.
Please speak to your Teacher or Principal for more information.
