The 600-level courses are master's-level courses that BPS second-year students can take. These courses will count as credit towards your electives and, if you pursue a master's degree, will also count towards your master's program. This is a way to encourage students who are considering pursuing higher education next year or in the future.

The seminars/issues in educational leadership will focus on a single concept in leadership which is current in the field and not addressed in depth in other educational leadership courses. The topic of the seminars will be determined by the educational leadership department. This course will focus on the role of the administrator in the implementation of the various legislations and policies in Ontario which impact on the provision of educational programs and services on behalf of students with special education needs. The course includes an in-depth review of the legislation and policies with respect to special education from the perspective of the administrator’s role; building positive partnerships with parents and advocates; creating and managing the school support team; and an exploration of “best practices” with respect to supporting students in their quest for educational success.
