Courses of Study Grades 10, 11 and 12

Introduction：

At Jinling School, we offer a grade 11 and 12 program leading to the granting of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. This is the same Diploma that is received by Canadian students in the public schools of the Province of Ontario, in Canada.

Prior to enrolling in the BSI program, students will receive instruction in English as a Foreign Language during their Senior 1 – Grade 10 year. The EFL program is divided into five parts. The parts do not represent a grade level but rather a fluency level.  Level 5 – ESLEO is the highest level.

Students are assessed in September and placed in the level determined through the test of English proficiency in Senior 1. At the end of each semester, students are assessed again and placed in the level recommended by the test. At the end of each semester, students are awarded a credit for the level they have achieved. Students may only receive one credit per level.

The following is a description of the five levels.
