Communicating student learning is a key element in the learning process for all students. This ongoing communication happens throughout the year and involves the teacher, the student, and the parent/guardian. Beginning this school year there are changes to the K-12 Reporting Policy. The following resources help to explain the changes to assessment and reporting that the Ministry of Education has implemented in the summer of 2023.

Provincial assessments are changing to align with the new curriculum. They provide a snapshot of student performance in key areas and, over time, can help to monitor key outcomes of B.C.’s education system. B.C.’s provincial assessments remain rigorous and based on learning standards to evaluate student achievement, Core Competencies, and literacy and numeracy skills.
