“Adult Day School is allowing me to obtain my credits at my own pace to prepare for post secondary studies at Cambrian College. With help from the staff, I am able to build my skills and knowledge for the future,” says student Adesuwa Esosa.
She adds: “This school offers me the flexibility so that I can study, write and get help from teachers during the day when my own children are in school. Adult Day School checks all the boxes for me. I’d like to thank the staff for making this a supportive journey. Thank you for always cheering me on.”
Several options are available to students, including credit courses blending individualized, teacher-led and e-Learning formats of instruction; Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) and Mature Student Evaluation (MSE); formal evaluation and credit-granting processes for mature students; and an adult Co-operative Education program that grants credits in conjunction with on-the-job work experience.
“The Adult Day School prepares students for apprenticeships, college, university or the world of work,” says Principal Heather Downey. “These learning opportunities are offered on a continuous in-take basis from September to June.”
She adds: “Students can design their own flexible timetable, and can attend classroom or Co-operative Education during various times throughout the day, making the Adult Day School an ideal place for mature students.”
