Grade 12 students at Cambie will be writing the Grade 12 Literacy Assessment on January 16th from 8:30-11:45am. It is a provincial assessment that assesses student proficiency in literacy. It is a graduation requirement and completed during students’ Grade 12 year.

The Grade 12 Literacy Assessment assesses students’ ability to use critical and reflective thinking and analysis to make meaning from a diverse array of texts. It also assesses the ability of students to communicate their ideas, or those found in the texts. The Grade 12 Literacy assessment is not based on a particular subject matter or course, but rather on learning across multiple subjects from kindergarten to Grade 12.

If you have not already done so, you may wish to take a look at the BC Grade 12 Literacy Assessment website for additional information on the format and sample questions HERE.
