PLAR Policy

Your past learning counts.

Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) lets Aubrey Academy review evidence of what a student already knows, confirm the right placement, and build a personalized pathway toward the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD).

What Is PLAR

Recognition built on evidence.

Aubrey Academy supports homeschool students and other learners working toward an OSSD. Through PLAR, we review evidence of previous learning to determine placement, validate prerequisite knowledge, and develop an individualized pathway toward graduation.

Course by course

Every piece of evidence is reviewed for the specific course it relates to.

Ontario curriculum

Learning is measured against Ontario curriculum expectations, the same standard used for every OSSD credit.

A clear pathway

Every family leaves the review knowing exactly which credits remain for graduation.

Acceptable Evidence of Learning

More than report cards.

No formal transcript? Many kinds of documentation can show what a student has learned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Good to know.

Will the student automatically receive credits?

What if I don't have formal report cards?

Portfolios, assignments, projects, assessments and other evidence may also be submitted.

Will Aubrey Academy tell us what credits are still needed?

Yes. Following the review, students receive a personalized learning pathway outlining their remaining graduation requirements.
