The Portage la Prairie School Division recognizes that, in some circumstances, flexibility may be warranted in order to promote the overall success of students in earning the required credits to attain a High School diploma.

In accordance with the guidelines delivery by Manitoba Education, a Principal may grant the substitution of up to two compulsory credits for any students in grades 9 to 12 where a strong case can be made for doing so. Use of substitution of credits is to be considered an exception that is to be utilized only when extenuating circumstances are present. A Principal must have the written approval of a parent/guardian (when the child is under 18 years of age) and must document the rationale and include it with the student’s records of marks.
