Graduation Program Policy Guide  \nThis guide focuses on the curriculum and assessment requirements in Grades 10, 11, and 12 and the related policies for the B.C. Graduation Program. The guide provides a common understanding among educators, students, parents, post-secondary institutions, business, and government of the policies of the B.C. Graduation Program.  \nThe B.C. Graduation Program sets the requirements to exit the K-12 education system and ensures that students are graduating from secondary school as educated citizens, with the knowledge, competencies, and skills they will need to transition successfully into higher education, training, or the workforce.  \nThis guide also contains information about the Adult Graduation Program , available to students aged 18 and older.  \nA complete summary of all policies within this guide is included in Appendix 5: Graduation Program Policies and Associated Ministerial Orders.  \nWhat’s New for 2020/21  \n􀀁 The Grade 12 Literacy Assessments (English and French) will be implemented in the 2021/22 school year, rather than in 2020/21 .  \n􀀁 The 2004 Graduation Program is now officially closed; however, schools may submit to the Ministry course data for 2004 Graduation Program students until June 30, 2021.  \n􀀁 Due to COVID-19, the 2020/21 school year will start in Stage 2 of the K-12 Educational Framework and may shift depending on guidance from public health.
