School software for British Columbia schools
Choose British Columbia when you create your school, and Onflows sets up Kindergarten to Grade 12, 2 terms, the Graduation Numeracy and Literacy Assessments years and the board's grading before you type anything.
BC Ministry of Education and Child Care curriculum
We have not yet checked this setup against the board's own published scheme. It is a sensible default: check the grading and subjects in your first week and change what does not match.

Grading, the way British Columbia grades
The academic year runs September to June. Each stage gets its own scale, and marks entered once become the gradebook, the progress card and the parent's screen.
| Stage | Scale | Grades | Pass mark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kindergarten | BC proficiency scale | EXT, PRO, DEV, EMG | |
| Primary | BC proficiency scale | EXT, PRO, DEV, EMG | |
| Intermediate | BC proficiency scale | EXT, PRO, DEV, EMG | |
| Junior Secondary | BC proficiency scale | EXT, PRO, DEV, EMG | |
| Graduation Program | BC letter grades | A, B, C+, C, C-, F | 50% |
The year's assessments, already planned
These arrive with their weights, so the term result adds up without a spreadsheet beside it. This plan is a common pattern rather than the board's prescribed one; change it to match yours.
| Term | Assessment | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Semester 1 | Classwork | 25% |
| Semester 1 | Final Exam | 25% |
| Semester 2 | Classwork | 25% |
| Semester 2 | Final Exam | 25% |
Subjects at every stage
Seeded per class, and yours to edit. Your school picks its languages at setup. Add a subject, drop one, or split a second language into its own roster.
