  2. MINISTRY OF EDUCATIONGRADUATION REQUIREMENTS2009-2010 Need 54 credits to graduate. (Minimum of 20 from Secondary V). Students must pass the following courses to graduate. Histoire in Grade 10 Science and Technology in Grade 10 Mathematics in Grade 10 Arts in Grade 10 English in Grade 11 French in Grade 11 Ethics and Religious Culture OR Physical Education and Health in Grade 11

  3. Focus of the QEP Shift from “curriculum to be covered” to “competencies that students need to develop”. Students are expected to complete complex tasks (performance based), to develop their competencies.

  10. Math and Science Choices for 2009-2010 After the Term 1 Report Card (early February) math and science teachers will give recommendations to students/parents concerning math and science courses for Grade 11. When students choose their electives for Grade 11 (mid-February), they will also choose their math level. (CST, TS, or S) Depending on student progress and interest thereafter, students can still make changes. In June, students will write their math exam in either: CST,TS, or S.

  11. Reports Reports will be sent home as follows: • Mid-term 1 Early November • Term 1 End of January • Mid-term 2 Middle of April • Term 2 End of June

  12. Evaluation by Competencies • Each subject has 3 competencies that the student will be evaluated on. • Works on a 5 point scale. • Advanced 5 • Thorough 4 • Acceptable 3 • Partial 2 • Minimal 1

  13. Structure of the Scales of Competency Levels

  14. Subject Specific Competencies English Language Arts • Uses language/talk to communicate and to learn. 33.3% • Reads and listens to written, spoken and media texts. 33.3% • Produces Text for Personal and Social Reasons 33.3%

  15. Competency Grades • Marks are not cumulative. • An end of year a “Competency Report” will be produced to evaluate all of the competencies for each subject. • The final mark will be an average of the weighted competencies. • Teachers will make a “judgment” on how the student has done on each competency at that point in time.

  16. Teachers’ Professional Judgment The teacher: makes a judgment based on various means of evaluation: tests, quizzes, written work, oral presentations, portfolies, performances, interchanges with the student, etc. bases the judgment on relevant and recent information. 16
