Final Exam and Report Card Information
Please ensure that all your course assignments have been completed and submitted, with nothing left outstanding.
Before attempting your exam, you are required to add us to your OUAC or OCAS account.
To write your exam, you must attend at the designated school location during the stated business hours.
All outstanding fees must be paid in full, and you must provide your prerequisite report card along with your transcript.
If you reside within 100 km of our Brampton campus, you are expected to write your final exam in person at the school. Students living more than 100 km away will have their exam scheduled online through Zoom.
Final Exams
- Final evaluation accounts for the 30% of your final grade. Instructors are responsible for informing
student about the course grade breakdown by providing them a course outline previously reviewed and
approved by the Principal. A student cannot waive a final examination. - You will see the examination schedule posted on the Information Board two weeks prior to the
examination period. It is your responsibility to check the examination schedule and notify the
Administration of any conflicts within your schedule. You are responsible for being on time and prepared
for the examination on the scheduled day and hour. All instructions and corrections will be made at the
beginning of the examination period and will not be repeated. - Only illness or unforeseen circumstances clearly beyond your control will be considered as valid reasons
for a missed examination. For an illness to be recognized as a legitimate excuse, a certificate from a licensed doctor is mandatory. If you claim other unforeseen circumstances as an excuse for missing an
examination, you must apply for academic consideration to the Director within two business days from
the date of the scheduled exam. If the Director recognizes your excuse for missing the exam as legitimate,
you will be evaluated by other means, which may include another examination at the date arranged with
the instructor. It is your responsibility to seek remedy for a missed examination.
- For online students, Final exams will be written by In Person Proctoring. The student may select a
proctor to meet with in person for the purpose of invigilating the exam. The student must apply to write
the final exam a minimum of two weeks prior to the proposed exam date by submitting an application to
The Educators Academy. - In order to be approved, any in-person exam proctor must meet all of the following criteria:
➢ Must not be related to the student in any way
➢ Must not be a student at any level of study
➢ Must not be a tutor
➢ Must have a university/ college degree
➢ Must be able to read and speak in the English language
➢ Must have a valid business email address
If the proctor is approved, both the proctor and student will be provided with detailed exam instructions
via email. The approved proctor and student may then proceed with the final exam as scheduled. Once the
exam has been written, the proctor must sign and return it to The Educators Academy.
Transcript & Report Card
- The assessment and evaluation strategies and methods teachers apply at The Educators will vary
according to the curriculum expectations of each discipline and the assessment needs of each course. - Course work, such as written assignments, tests, independent study unit, major essays, formal
presentations, etc., shall account for seventy percent (70%) of the overall grade. The final course -end
evaluation shall constitute thirty per cent (30%) of the final grade for each credit course. This evaluation
may consist of a combination of a final exam, performance, essay or other evaluation method suitable for
the course content. All forms of course work and evaluation must assess and evaluate students’
achievement of the curriculum expectations of each course. The final grade will be determined through
teacher’s professional judgment and interpretation of evidence reflecting the student’s most consistent and
most recent level of achievement.Assessment and Evaluation:
Course Work = 70%
Final Exam = 30%
Final Assessment and Evaluation = 100%
At The Educators Academy, student achievement is communicated formally to students and parents by
means of the Provincial Report Card. The report card documents the student’s achievement in every
course, at particular points in the school year, in the form of a percentage grade. It also includes teachers’
comments on the student’s strengths and weaknesses, specifying the areas in which improvement is
needed and the ways in which it might be achieved. The report card contains separate sections for
recording attendance and for evaluating the student’s learning skills in every course.
At the end of each course, a final grade is recorded, and credit is granted for every course in which the
student’s grade is 50 per cent or higher (reflecting achievement at level 1 or above). The final grade for
each course will be based on the above stated assessment and evaluation procedures.
The Ontario Student Transcript (OST) provides a comprehensive record of a student’s overall
achievement. At The Educators Academy, the credits that a student has earned towards fulfillment of the
diploma requirements will be recorded on the OST. This record will include all the credits gained by the
student using any of the means described in the Ministry’s policy documents. The transcript, which is part
of the Ontario Student Record (OSR), will include the following information:
➢ A list of all courses taken or attempted by the student, with the percentage grades earned and the
credits gained (students repeating a course for which they have already earned a credit will earn
only one credit for the completion of that course; the withdrawal from the course is not recorded
if a student drops the course within 5 instructional days following the issue of the first provincial
report card);
➢ Identification of any course that has been substituted for one that is a diploma requirement;
➢ Confirmation that the student has completed the community involvement requirement;
➢ The student’s successful completion of literacy requirements;
In addition to recording the number of credits earned, The Educators Academy may indicate on a
student’s transcript any course that has been substituted for one that is a diploma requirement and an
indication of any extraordinary circumstances affecting the students’ achievement in a Grade 11 or 12
courses. It is at the Principal’s discretion to make a decision regarding the recording of such information
on the OST.
