Alberta Curriculum Q&A
1、Alberta Curriculum
Alberta Education system is recognized internationally as one of the best learning systems in the English speaking world. Alberta students have placed among the top academic performers in all five cycles of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). In the PISA assessment, Alberta’s scores in science were the second highest in the world and similar results were evident in mathematics and reading.
2、 Rigorous Curriculum
Alberta requires schools to provide a common curriculum for grade 1-12. This strong curriculum specifies learner outcomes for each subject area. Teachers, university professors, business leaders and other experts developed the curriculum collaboratively. The curriculum is reviewed and updated to ensure it is current and focused on what student’s need to know.
3、Teacher Certification
Teachers at the Canadian International School must hold a valid Alberta Professional certificate.
They must be assigned to teach grades accredited by Alberta Education.
They must consistently use the Alberta programs of study as the basis for instruction.
They must be supervised and evaluated in accordance with the teacher Growth, Supervision and Evaluation Policy and by an Alberta school principal.
4、 External Examinations
School- leaving examinations are another feature of the Alberta Education system. In order to qualify for an Alberta High School Diploma, students at the grade 12 level must write provincial examinations in core subject areas. These diploma examinations are set and marked by Alberta education.
Alberta also has provincial achievement tests that are administered annually to all students in grade 6 and 9. The results from these tests provide schools with reliable and valid information about how well their students are achieving grade- level standards.
