Curriculum Analysis Strategy
The Curriculum Analysis Strategy was developed to examine the
relationship between curricular outcomes and teachers’
assessment/evaluation practices and teaching strategies. Through this
analysis, the District endeavors to create an environment that broadens
and deepens the collaboration among teachers and between schools. The
Curriculum Delivery Department plays a key role in the development and
implementation of this initiative. Visit the Curriculum Analysis
Strategy website.District Department Heads

French Immersion
The District provides a variety of French Immersion programs at a number
of schools. All programs at the lower grade levels feed to a
single continuing French Immersion program at designated senior high
schools.
Information sessions are held in late January or early February.
Traditionally, sessions on Early French Immersion are held in Montague
and Charlottetown, and a session on Late French Immersion is held in
Charlottetown. Dates and times are advertised in local media.
Registration for Early (grade 1) French Immersion is performed at the
same time as all grade 1 registrations, usually in early February.
Attendance zones are outlined in
regulation. Parents of potential French
Immersion students, if unsure of the school zone, may contact
Transportation Services. The process for Mid (Gulf Shore only - grade 4)
and Late French Immersion (grade 7) Registration involves a registration
form, and is handled through schools at the grade 6 level.
French Monitor Program
The French Monitor program is an initiative coordinated through the
provincial Department of Education. It provides full and part-time
assistance to French teachers within schools.
Monitors may be hired from anywhere within Canada. Additional
information is available on the CMEC web site.Summer School
Summer school courses in senior high subjects may be arranged by the
provincial Department of Education, in concert with the school board, if
needed. Toward the end of the school year, advertisements are
placed in local media to determine interest. The establishment of
courses is determined based on the number of registrations received.
Distribution of Materials/Information to Schools by Outside
Agencies
Organizations or agencies outside the provincial education system
wishing to distribute materials or information to schools must first
receive approval through a request to the Curriculum Delivery
Department.
Research Requests from Outside Agencies
Any corporate or research-based interest wishing to contact schools
directly must first obtain a letter of approval from the District before
proceeding with any such request. This request for approval should
be directed to the Curriculum Delivery Department.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme
The Eastern School District recently established an International
Baccalaureate Programme. For more information, contact Dr. Kevin
MacLeod, Curriculum Consultant.
The IB Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum,
primarily aimed at students aged 16 to 19. It leads to a
qualification that is widely recognized by the world’s leading
universities. Students learn more than a collection of facts.
The Diploma Programme prepares students for university and
encourages them to: ask challenging questions, learn how to learn,
develop a strong sense of their own identity and culture, and
develop the ability to communicate with and understand people from
other countries and cultures.

the diploma programme.
The Diploma Programme is one of three programmes offered by the IB.
(The other two programs are Primary Years and Middle Years.)
The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) is a non-profit
educational foundation that focuses on the following:
- The IBO aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young
people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through
intercultural understanding and respect.
- To this end the IBO works with schools, governments and
international organizations to develop challenging programmes of
international education and rigorous assessment.
- These programmes encourage students across the world to become
active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that
other people, with their differences, can also be right.

Charlottetown Rural and Colonel Gray high schools are currently
pursuing the four-year application process to become the first IB
schools on the Island. In the future, the IB diploma programme
may be implemented in other PEI high schools.
