DISTRICT PARTNERSHIP:

The Surrey School District, in partnership with local post-secondary institutes and SkilledTradesBC, offers a wide variety of Partnership Programs for district high school students. These enable students to begin training in a specific occupation and to save money. The Surrey School District pays the tuition. Programs occur annually in second semester at other school sites around the city.

Partnership programs are available to senior students; while priority is given to grade 11 students, grade 10 student may apply. Grade 11 students apply for their grade 12 year; grade 10 students apply for their grade 11 year.

Students who participate in a Partnership Program may receive:

elective credits toward secondary school graduation,
post-secondary credit,
SkilledTradesBC technical trades apprenticeship training.

PLEASE NOTE: Applications are open from September through March. While tuition is paid for by the district some programs require students to pay additional fees which are detailed in brochures available in the Career Centre.
