Unique Pathways & Off-campus Education
Teacher Recommendation Form
Students applying for Dual Credit and Exploratory programs are required to have a teacher, Guidance Counsellor or Off-campus Coordinator complete the online
Teacher Recommendation Form on their behalf.
This form is one piece of evidence within the application package to support a student earning a seat in one of our Unique Pathways programs.
The staff member completing the form should know the student well enough to comment on the items below and answer follow up questions from the Unique Pathways team (if required).
Our programs run with industry, community and post-secondary instructors who offer true industry and post-secondary experiences. Although we assign a supervising teacher to each program, they are not present at all times and follow the lead of the program instructor. The levels of support offered in CBE schools may not be available at partner sites.
Honest communication is key to setting students up for success and providing a positive off-campus learning experience.
The staff member will answer questions on the following topics as part of the recommendation:
- The program the student is applying for
- The relationship to the student
- The student’s approach to learning
- The student’s attendance and circumstances (if required)
- The student’s work habits and supports in place at school
- Any additional comments to support the students application
