Here's an overview of what to expect from now until June 2023 as the new online learning model is implemented.
Online and distributed learning programs stay the same
Students can continue to enrol in online learning programs just like they normally would in previous years. See how to sign up for online learning.
- Kindergarten to Grade 7 students can enrol in full programs inside or outside their district, or with an independent school
- Grades 8 to 12 students can enrol in a full program inside or outside their district
- Grades 8 to 12 students can cross-enrol and enrol outside their district with a public or independent school
A few things will change
During the 2022/23 year:
B.C.’s education stakeholders and Indigenous rightsholders will continue development of the new online learning model. This includes:
- A new policy and procedures guide
- A new accountability and quality assurance process
Some schools will adopt the provincial online course platform (called a learning management system or LMS). All provincial online learning schools will use the LMS in the 2023/24 school year.
More information will be made available throughout this school year as soon as it’s available.
Things you can do
Policies, processes and other details for the new online learning model are under development with B.C.’s education stakeholders and Indigenous rightsholders.
