Senior high school education in Canada is the responsibility of the education departments of all provinces in Canada, and there is no unified national education system. To go to Canada for high school, it is recommended to start preparing at least one year in advance.

Contents and graduation standards of Canadian senior high school curriculum

The education system in Canada is basically the same as that in China, with 6 years of primary school, 3 years of junior high school (collectively 1-9 grade) and 3 years of senior high school (10- 12). Students studying in Grade One or Grade Two in China can go to Canada to study in grades 10 to 12 if family economic conditions permit.

Senior high school education in Canada is the responsibility of the education departments of all provinces in Canada, so there is no unified national education system. Take Ontario as an example: from grade 9 to grade 12, high school students need to complete 30 credits before they can graduate, of which 18 is compulsory and 12 is optional.

Each credit 1 10 hour, of which 18 credit compulsory courses include: English, French, mathematics, science (physics, chemistry, biology, computer), Canadian history, Canadian geography, art, health, sociology, career development, third language, Canadian world studies and business studies.

12 elective credit courses: students can choose according to the major they plan to study when they go to college in the future If students prove that they have special knowledge and skills, they can automatically get 4 elective credits without elective courses, but each subject can't exceed 2 credits, including: accounting, economics, marketing, business studies, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, electronics, computer, law, geography, history, English as a second foreign language, classics, drama, family studies, international language studies, and so on.

In addition, in order to obtain the provincial high school diploma, students must also take English reading and writing exams and complete 40 hours of community volunteer work.

Two choices for China students to go to Canadian high schools.

The first kind, studying in public high schools managed by the education bureaus of various provinces and cities.

Each public education bureau manages its affiliated primary schools, junior high schools and senior high schools. At present, many junior high schools and senior high schools have enrolled international students, including China students, who study with Canadian students, take graduation exams and apply for universities. Students with excellent grades can also study internationally recognized IB courses.

International students who are not native speakers of English must take the English proficiency test when they register for school. The school decides whether to take English classes first or to study English classes together with specialized courses. For China students, they have a good foundation in mathematics, science and chemistry. As long as you improve your English language learning, you can quickly adapt to studying in Canada.

Recommended schools: Vancouver Public Education Bureau, Toronto Public Education Bureau, Victoria Public Education Bureau, York Public Education Bureau, Ottawa Carlton Public Education Bureau, Gaoguilin Public Education Bureau, Langli Public Education Bureau, etc.

Second, attend a private international school.

Private international schools mainly provide high school courses, and students who pass the graduation will get high school diplomas. Compared with public schools, such schools are more professional and comprehensive in taking care of international students and providing student services. Some schools also have student dormitories and provide catering services, so that students can devote more energy to their studies. In addition, some schools also offer preparatory courses for students with poor grades in high school. After passing the exam, they applied to the university.

Recommended schools: Nancy Campbell College, Columbia International College, Toronto International College, etc.

Advantages of attending Canadian high schools

Prerequisites for application

1, which requires families to have at least about 600,000 funds and a good deposit history as a guarantee.

2. Students under18 (students under BC 19) need Canadian citizens or permanent residents as guardians.

As long as you decide to go abroad, I suggest you make preparations as soon as your family's economic conditions permit. In view of the increasingly legal requirements of Canada's visa policy, it is suggested that you start preparing the guarantee money under the guidance of a professional teacher at least one year in advance, so that you can avoid detours and get twice the result with half the effort.
