K-12 Curriculum Connections

The K-12 Curriculum in B.C. has been dramatically redesigned in recent years and Metro Vancouver School and Youth Leadership Programs have been responding. Some notable changes include:

  • Sustainability and place-based learning are core foundations of the new K-12 curriculum in B.C.
  • Teachers now have more opportunity to embrace community and place-based learning environments beyond the classroom.
  • Greater focus on the development of Core Competencies, personal, social and emotional proficiencies that all students need to be active citizens.

Metro Vancouver provides curriculum-connected resources, programs, professional development and other learning opportunities strongly focused on place and sustainability priorities to develop competencies for active citizenship.
