Reporting Policy Framework – Changes for 2023-2024
The framework linked below provides an overview of the upcoming changes to the K-12 Student Reporting Policy. This policy is set to be implemented for the 2023-2024 school year. This framework aligns student reporting with the redesigned curriculum and provincial assessment system. The work is the result consultation and engagement with rightsholders, education partners, teachers, parents, caregivers, students, and the public over the past several years.

The Ministry of Education and Child Care will be working with a team of teachers and administrators to collaboratively construct resources for educators, parents, caregivers, and students. You can see what is changing and what is staying the same at
