From School to Success: Clearing the Path

Nova Scotia Provincial Literacy Strategy
The provincial literacy strategy will ensure young Nova Scotians have the literacy skills to thrive in school and beyond. The province is investing $3.2 million in more direct support for students and more support for teachers to strengthen literacy learning in all subjects and grades, every day.

Year 1 Annual Report
Improvements in year one of the action plan include a streamlined grade Primary to 3 curriculum with a greater emphasis on math and literacy, the early introduction of coding to help today's students become more career ready, a greater focus on financial literacy, homework standards and more support for young children.

Report Card information for parents & guardians with children in grades P-3
Nova Scotia’s Action Plan for Education focuses on maximizing student learning and success. A redesigned curriculum for grades Primary to 3 is one of the biggest initiatives for this year. It will provide students with a stronger foundation in mathematics & literacy. To help parents understand how their child is learning with the revised curriculum, the P-3 report card has changed.

Provincewide Code of Conduct
To ensure consistency across the province, a new provincial school code of conduct with clear and concise standards for student behavior was established. Watch the video to learn more.
