ASSESSMENTS
Each pupil has the opportunity to receive positive, challenging and interactive, and hands-on learning.
Our teachers are easy to contact and will proactively communicate with you if there are any additional learning or social supports recommended for your child. We believe that early intervention and parental awareness is key to helping students reach their potential.
Measuring Progress
Kingsley Primary School follows the provincial directives. Students receive a report card three times per year followed by a parent-teacher interview. Our small class sizes allow teachers the time and space to provide personal assistance to each student in the classroom.
