More than 73,000 students will be added to the MyEducation BC system later this week as schools from the Vancouver, West Vancouver, Surrey, Mission, and Langley school districts move onto the service. 

In order to ensure a smooth transition of data, teachers and administrators will be unable to add new information to MyEducation BC from 5 p.m. Nov. 6 until 7 a.m. Nov. 12. These dates were confirmed earlier this fall after consultation with school districts and are a planned part of bringing all school districts on to the system.

Teachers and administrators will still be able to view student information they may require but will be unable to add or change records during the transition. The Ministry has been working with districts to ensure they can work around the scheduled transition time.

This planned system update is not performance related. Since hardware upgrades were completed after technical issues early in the school year, MyEducation BC has been performing well.
