(CP) -- Education authorities, long dissatisfied with the rigid grading system used in Cana- dian schools, think they may have found an alternative 'in the "continuous progress" school. : The method is being experi- mented with at three elemen- tary schools in Peterborough County this year. It involves admitting first-year students three times a year rather than once in September. Children who will turn six by Jan. 1, 1968, were admitted at the beginning of Septem- ber. Those who will be six by March 15 are to be admitted at the beginning of January. And a third group whose birthdays fall before next Sep- tember will enter school March 20. The average Grade 1 child will enter school when he is 544. This will solve the teach- er's problem of having chil- dren with almost a one-year range in age arrive. together in one class in September. the young fashion scene, it is sure to become a status hat.

The teacher does not teach a year-long course of subjects. In Peterborough Primary Schools Instead she teaches three "units" of work that a child is expected to master during his years in elementary school. Unit 1 is taught in the fall term to the first group of chil- dren. A continuous stream of tests and ratings will deter- mine how successful a child has been with unit 1 work, LEARN SAME UNIT On Jan. 2 another group of children arrive to join the group that has had three months at school and has completed one unit. Both groups are taught unit 2. This means the work units have to be designed as self- contained segments. Work in unit 2 cannot be based on work in unit 1 because the second group of children will , dren will take unit 1--the unit they missed--with the same "teacher, then proceed to the next level in January. The third group of children will take units 1 and 2 and move on to the next level the following March. Board Superintendent Rae Linton is enthusiastic about the innovation and feels its flexibility will help a child early through the difficult years of school. NO FINAL EXAMS Another benefit is that it eliminates the old June final exams and the requirement that a student who fails must repeat a whole year, being placed with children notably younger than he is, and going over work much of which he probably knows quite well. Under the unit system, a re- port card is made up in quad- ruplicate at the end of each unit, one copy going to the have missed unit 1. In March the third group arrives and the teacher pro- ceeds to teach unit 3 to all three groups. In June one-third of the chil- dren have covered the first three units and are ready to progress in September to a new room, a new teacher and to begin unit 4 work.

The card grades the child's proficiency in the. unit just completed with letter values from A to E. If a child comes home with an E on his report after com- pleting unit 4 he has, to use the old terminology, "failed" unit 4, but there the similarity ends, He remains class, with the same teacher and at least some of the same friends, and he takes unit 4 over again with children in his class who are a unit be- hind his own group. If he fails to master unit 4 once again he can repeat it a second time, still remaining with some members of -his own age group. LESS TO REPEAT The continuous progress school thus allows a child to repeat work twice without having to be left behind while all his classmates move on to another class. There is the added advan- tage of having to repeat only a small segment of work in- stead of the whole year. For the child who is above average the system has other advantages. Rather than skip- ping a grade to move up with children at least a year older, the child skips ahead by one unit, often without leaving his own class.
