Department Overview

Welcome to Walkerville Collegiate Institute's English Department, where language and literature come alive through diverse pathways. Our English courses cater to various learning styles, with options like de-streamed, academic and applied, along with locally developed courses in grades 9 and 10, ensuring a tailored approach to individual student needs.

Dive into the narrative with the grade 11: Contemporary First Nations, Metis & Inuit Voices course by embracing diverse voices. In grade 12, the English and Writer's Craft course elevates literary exploration, honing writing skills and fostering creativity. The Ontario Secondary School Literacy Course is a crucial component, equipping students with essential literacy skills for success beyond the classroom.
