Ottawa Now - Adult High School students voice concerns over looming curriculum changes

March 12, 2026

Students at Ottawa’s Adult High School are voicing concerns about upcoming curriculum changes, and how future programs will be delivered. According to a document sent to staff members, the OCDSB is moving students aged 21-and-over to a 'continuing education model', effective next Fall. It also says these changes will impact staffing, but the exact nature is still under evaluation and we don't know how it will impact day-to-day learning. 34-year-old Fatima‑Zahra Kajji owns a High School diploma, but wanted to upgrade her Math and Science courses. With one course left to complete, she has already been accepted into the University of Ottawa's Bachelor of Science Program. Kajji tells us what she's been hearing on Ottawa Now.
