Attendance & participation
Attendance is recorded for each scheduled course week. Verified access or participation in planned learning from Monday to Friday is recorded as present; no participation is recorded as absent. The 15% component also evaluates participation using the Ministry rubric. Excused absences do not reduce the mark.
2026–27 final-mark calculation
65% course work completed throughout the course, 15% attendance and participation, and 20% mandatory final evaluation. A final mark of at least 50% is required to earn the credit. Homework is not included in the mark or counted as scheduled instructional time.
Mandatory final evaluation
10% secure written final exam and 10% culminating task, completed during the school’s designated final-evaluation period.
Exam delivery & integrity
The written exam will be securely proctored online with identity verification, camera and microphone requirements, controlled access, and documented accommodations where applicable. Private schools may use secure online proctoring under the September 2026 policy.
