Additional resources in Asia Pacific studies are coming soon to schools throughout the province, thanks to a new partnership between the Ministry of Education and the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada (APF Canada).

The British Columbia Teachers’ Council’s 2015-2016 annual report, released by the Ministry of Education, highlights key progress by the organization in its work to review the education, competence and conduct standards for educators in B.C.’s K-12 system

The world is changing and B.C. students need to be ready to adapt to the careers of tomorrow. Students in the North Vancouver and West Vancouver school districts will be prepared thanks to provincial funding awarded to the districts, helping to connect kids with opportunities in skilled trades and tech training. 

Students in the Vancouver School District are connecting with skills and technology training development thanks to a $17,500 grant to the district from the Province’s Shoulder Tappers Program.

More than 60 teachers from the Lower Mainland gathered at the Microsoft Centre of Excellence in downtown Vancouver to learn basic coding techniques from some of the best instructors in the industry – all to make sure B.C. students have the skills they need to succeed in today’s changing world.

Getting more students into seismically safe schools is the goal of the announcement by Education Minister Mike Bernier and Vancouver School Board official trustee Dianne Turner that they are directing the Vancouver Project Office (VPO) to look for ways to fast-track seismic upgrades or replacements in Vancouver.

More than 20,000 B.C. students are being rewarded for taking action in their communities with a concert they’ll never forget at the 2016 WE Day Vancouver event. The year’s line-up includes Serena Ryder, Paula Abdul and Lilly Singh among many others.
