The Mass Casualty Commission’s Recommendation C.17 calls for province-wide implementation of curriculum addressing gender-based violence (GBV) and bystander intervention (BI) education. This will ensure that every student in grades primary to 12 will learn how to recognize, prevent, and respond to GBV and other harms. The updated outcomes have been added to the new at-a-glance documents found to the right.  Additional information can be found in this one-pager or by clicking on the resources link.

Course Outline

The English 10 Plus curriculum guide provides a instructional program to support teachers of students who have experienced difficulties in English language arts in grades 7–9 and require increased support in developing English language arts skills.

Because these students have not met learning outcomes with real success at the grade 9 level, their academic choices may be limited. Through English 10 Plus, they will have extended opportunities to increase their literacy skills.

A key feature of the course is an emphasis on student-centred, active learning. Students who have had limited success in meeting English language arts curriculum outcomes need to engage fully in the learning process in order to develop strategies and strengthen skills in each of the strands of English language arts.

The curriculum guide for this course is still relevant and includes important information for teachers. Teachers are reminded to reference the At-A-Glance documents for outcomes when using course guides.
