The BC curriculum encourages lifelong learning by focusing on the development of the whole person (intellectually, emotionally, socially, and ethically). Its emphasis on Core Competencies supports students in becoming critical thinkers, effective communicators, and socially responsible individuals. Learning is no longer limited to content but is seen as a journey that continues beyond the classroom, preparing students to adapt and grow throughout life. By integrating Indigenous perspectives and valuing diverse ways of knowing, the curriculum nurtures self-awareness, cultural understanding, appreciation and connection to the community. This holistic approach fosters a deeper, more meaningful education that empowers learners to thrive in a rapidly changing world. https://curriculum.gov.bc.ca/
