HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROGRAMME

COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT NETWORK

Brockton’s expansive Student Services Department provides various supports including but not limited to: post-secondary, course, and personal counseling; learning resources (for gifted and learning difference needs); social-emotional learning; mental health; and more.

POST-SECONDARY AND CAREER COUNSELING

The high school program at Brockton is focussed on preparing students for post-secondary paths AND life during and beyond those paths. Brockton School works with each graduating senior to determine the best fit for their post-secondary pathway. Starting in Grade 10, students meet individually with Brockton’s Post-Secondary Advisor to explore options for post-secondary life, and determine the course best suited for their chosen direction.

COMMUNITY ACTION AND LEADERSHIP

Service Learning is an important aspect of learning at Brockton School at all stages, and everybody has the opportunity to be a difference maker. High School students at Brockton take on leadership and mentoring roles both in and outside of the classroom, and are encouraged to explore and pursue areas of interest and passion as they delve into their personal and social responsibilities. The Community Action Teams (CATs) are an opportunity for students to engage in service learning in different areas, including Environmental Responsibility, Social Justice, and Health and Wellbeing.

ELECTIVE OFFERINGS AND SPECIALIST TEACHERS

A goal of the high school program at Brockton is to support students to further their solid foundation of core curriculum as well as to engage students at a deeper level in areas of potential passion. In general students take an academic course load (as required by post-secondary institution entry requirements) complemented by engagement in valuable elective programs and lessons for life-long learning.
