LUCKNOW EDUCATION. CANADIAN PATHWAY. GLOBAL FUTURE.

For today's students, education is no longer limited by the boundaries of a city, state or country.

A student studying in Lucknow can continue attending their regular school, remain close to parents and family, participate in their normal school life and, at the same time, begin preparing for universities and opportunities around the world.

This is the vision behind the collaboration between S.B.N. Inter College, Lucknow and Victoria Academy, Ontario, Canada.

Through this international academic collaboration, eligible students in Grades 9–12 can explore the opportunity to study toward the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) while continuing their regular Indian school education.

The idea is not to replace what students are already doing.

It is to add another opportunity to it.

Continue Your Current School

Continue Your Indian Education

Add a Canadian High School Pathway

Prepare for Global Universities

BRINGING INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION CLOSER TO LUCKNOW STUDENTS

For many families, international education has traditionally meant waiting until after Class 12 and then sending a student overseas.

That can involve a major financial commitment, relocation, accommodation, travel and separation from family.

The S.B.N. Inter College and Victoria Academy pathway creates another possibility.

Students can begin experiencing a Canadian academic pathway while they are still living and studying in Lucknow.

They can continue their Indian school education and gradually develop Canadian high school credits, international academic skills and university readiness from home.

International education can therefore begin much earlier — without requiring immediate international relocation.

ONE STUDENT. TWO EDUCATIONAL PATHWAYS.

Students do not need to leave S.B.N. Inter College in order to begin the Canadian pathway.

They can continue their:

Regular school education

School examinations

Classroom learning

School activities

Friendships

Family life

Indian academic pathway

At the same time, eligible students may enrol with Victoria Academy, Ontario, Canada and complete Ontario high school courses online.

This creates the opportunity to work toward:

INDIAN SCHOOL EDUCATION

PLUS

ONTARIO SECONDARY SCHOOL DIPLOMA (OSSD)

subject to successful completion of the applicable requirements of each educational system.

The Canadian pathway is designed to complement the student's existing education — not replace it.

WHAT IS THE OSSD?

Ontario Secondary School Diploma

The Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) is Ontario's high school graduation credential.

Victoria Academy is an Ontario, Canada private high school with:

BSID #884963

Victoria Academy provides Ontario high school courses, academic records, report cards and transcripts according to applicable Ontario education requirements.

Students who successfully complete all applicable Ontario graduation requirements may earn the full:

ONTARIO SECONDARY SCHOOL DIPLOMA

The OSSD can support students who wish to explore higher education opportunities in Canada and other international destinations.

WHY CAN THE OSSD BE VALUABLE FOR S.B.N. INTER COLLEGE STUDENTS?

Adding a Canadian academic pathway can give students another way to prepare for their future.

Global University Preparation

Prepare for colleges and universities in Canada, USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Asia, UAE and other global destinations.

Canadian Academic Credentials

Complete Ontario high school credits and build an official Ontario academic record.

Skill-Based Learning

Develop communication, critical thinking, problem-solving, research and presentation skills.

Continuous Assessment

Student performance is evaluated throughout the course rather than depending completely on one final examination.

Study From Lucknow

Begin Canadian education without immediately relocating overseas.

Stay With Family

Continue living with parents, siblings, relatives and the local community.

Scholarship Opportunities

Eligible students may qualify for Victoria Academy admission scholarships and later explore university-level scholarship opportunities.

Wider University Choices

Students can plan Grade 11 and Grade 12 Ontario courses according to future university program requirements.

STAY IN LUCKNOW. STUDY CANADIAN.

Students should not necessarily have to choose between staying connected to their existing school and gaining international academic exposure.

A student at S.B.N. Inter College can:

Continue attending their regular school

Continue Indian school studies

Remain with parents and family

Prepare for local examinations

Continue school and community life

And at the same time:

Study Canadian high school courses online

Complete Ontario credits

Develop international academic skills

Build a Canadian academic record

Prepare for global university opportunities

STAY HOME. STUDY CANADIAN.

Students can begin developing an international pathway while remaining connected to their family, culture, food, friends and community in Lucknow.

HOW MUCH ADDITIONAL STUDY IS REQUIRED?

A common question from parents is:

“Will my child now have to attend two complete schools every day?”

The answer is:

NO.

Victoria Academy's pathway is designed around the schedules of international students.

Students generally focus on:

ONE ONTARIO COURSE AT A TIME

Typical study time may be approximately:

1 TO 1.5 HOURS PER DAY*

Students can access online learning resources flexibly and receive academic support during their studies.

Actual study time can vary according to the course, student's pace, grade and individual academic plan.

ONE SUBJECT AT A TIME

Managing two educational pathways requires careful planning.

Rather than unnecessarily adding several Canadian subjects at the same time, students can generally focus on one Ontario course before progressing to another.

This approach can help students:

Reduce Academic Overload

Concentrate on One Subject

Balance Indian and Canadian Studies

Complete Courses Systematically

Maintain Regular School Priorities

Build Steady Academic Progress

An individual Ontario credit plan can be created according to the student's grade, previous education and future university goals.

CLASS 10 & CLASS 12 BOARD EXAMS REMAIN IMPORTANT

Indian board examinations are an important part of a student's academic journey.

The Canadian pathway is designed to work around these important examination periods.

Students may be able to take a planned pause during their Class 10 or Class 12 board examination period and resume their Canadian studies afterward according to their approved academic plan.

This allows students to focus properly on their Indian board examinations when required.

The objective is balance — not unnecessary pressure.

YOUR PREVIOUS INDIAN SCHOOL STUDIES MAY BE REVIEWED

Students entering Victoria Academy in later grades may already have completed significant secondary education in India.

Their previous school records and marksheets may therefore be reviewed for possible Ontario credit recognition.

Eligible previous learning may help students avoid unnecessarily repeating equivalent high school work.

The academic review can consider factors such as:

Previous marksheets

Subjects completed

Student's current grade

Previous years of study

Ontario graduation requirements

Academic eligibility

Victoria Academy academic review

This means that the Canadian pathway can be different for each student.

A Class 9 student's plan may be different from a Class 10, Class 11 or Class 12 student's plan.

A DIFFERENT STYLE OF ASSESSMENT

70% COURSEWORK + 30% FINAL EVALUATION

The Ontario learning approach places significant importance on a student's work throughout the course.

70% COURSEWORK

Coursework may include:

Assignments

Projects

Quizzes

Tests

Research

Presentations

Course activities

Regular academic work

30% FINAL EVALUATION

The remaining portion is based on the applicable final evaluation.

This means that a student's entire course grade does not normally depend on one final examination.

Regular academic effort matters.

Understanding matters.

Application matters.

Consistency matters.

FROM EXAM PREPARATION TO SKILL DEVELOPMENT

Academic marks remain important.

But students preparing for modern universities and careers also need skills beyond memorization.

The Canadian learning pathway can help students develop:

CRITICAL THINKING

ENGLISH COMMUNICATION

PROBLEM-SOLVING

RESEARCH SKILLS

PRESENTATION SKILLS

TEAMWORK

INDEPENDENT LEARNING

CONFIDENCE

UNIVERSITY READINESS

Students are encouraged to understand concepts, communicate ideas, complete projects and apply their learning.

These skills can become valuable when students progress into university and eventually into the workplace.

OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN, IMPROVE AND GROW

Learning is not simply about receiving a mark.

It is also about understanding what went wrong and learning how to improve.

Students can receive academic feedback during their coursework.

Depending on the course and applicable school policy, students may have opportunities to revise work, improve submissions or demonstrate improved understanding.

The objective is to build:

REAL UNDERSTANDING

STRONGER SKILLS

CONFIDENCE

ACADEMIC GROWTH

CHOOSE COURSES ACCORDING TO FUTURE CAREER GOALS

Students do not all have the same future plans.

One student may want to become an engineer.

Another may be interested in medicine.

Another may want to study computer science.

Another may prefer business, economics, law, psychology, media or design.

The Ontario academic pathway can therefore be planned according to different areas of interest.

Possible pathways include:

MEDICAL & HEALTH SCIENCES

ENGINEERING & PHYSICAL SCIENCES

COMPUTER SCIENCE / IT / DATA

COMMERCE / BUSINESS / ACCOUNTING

ECONOMICS / STATISTICS

HUMANITIES / LAW / SOCIAL SCIENCES

ARTS / DESIGN / MEDIA

FLEXIBLE / UNDECIDED PATHWAYS

The student's Canadian courses can therefore be selected with future university plans in mind.

START THINKING ABOUT UNIVERSITY EARLIER

Many students begin researching universities only after completing Class 12.

By then, students may discover that a particular university program requires subjects they did not study.

Early planning can help avoid this problem.

A better approach is:

CAREER INTEREST

↓

UNIVERSITY PROGRAM

↓

UNIVERSITY ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

↓

REQUIRED GRADE 12 SUBJECTS

↓

OSSD COURSE PLAN

For example, an engineering applicant may require a very different academic combination from a business, economics, psychology, computer science or design applicant.

Planning early can provide students with more clarity and more options.

GLOBAL UNIVERSITY & COLLEGE PATHWAYS

OSSD students can use their Ontario academic credentials when applying to universities and colleges that accept Ontario secondary school qualifications.

Students may explore higher education opportunities across:

CANADA 🇨🇦

UNITED STATES 🇺🇸

UNITED KINGDOM 🇬🇧

AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺

NEW ZEALAND 🇳🇿

EUROPE 🇪🇺

ASIA 🌏

UAE 🇦🇪

OTHER GLOBAL DESTINATIONS 🌎

Students are not limited to one country simply because they are completing a Canadian high school pathway.

The broader objective is to help create more university choices.

Actual admission depends on the student's marks, prerequisite subjects, chosen academic program and the admission policies of each university.

UNIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Strong academic achievement can also create additional opportunities.

Eligible OSSD students may explore merit-based and other university scholarship opportunities at selected institutions.

Some selected university scholarship opportunities may reach values of:

UP TO ₹47 LAKH*

depending on factors including:

Student's academic results

University

Chosen degree program

Scholarship criteria

Annual university policies

Application deadlines

Availability of awards

These university scholarships are separate from Victoria Academy's Canadian high school admission scholarship.

Scholarships are not automatic or guaranteed.

CAN IELTS OR ANOTHER ENGLISH TEST SOMETIMES BE WAIVED?

POTENTIALLY — DEPENDING ON THE UNIVERSITY.

Some universities may waive an additional English-language proficiency test for eligible OSSD graduates if the student satisfies that university's specific English-language requirements.

This can provide:

ENGLISH TESTING FLEXIBILITY*

However:

OSSD DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY MEAN “NO IELTS” EVERYWHERE.

Each university determines its own English-language requirements.

The requirement may also vary by program.

Students should therefore check the current admission policy of their intended university.

BEGIN INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION WITHOUT IMMEDIATE RELOCATION

For families, one of the most significant advantages of this model can be timing.

Students can begin developing a Canadian high school pathway while still living in India.

This can avoid the need for immediate:

International Relocation

Overseas Accommodation

Guardian Arrangements

Early Separation From Family

Major Overseas Living Expenses

Students can gain international academic exposure first and make larger overseas education decisions later.

For many families, this creates a more gradual and manageable approach to international education.

VICTORIA ACADEMY SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY

Victoria Academy's standard annual tuition is:

CAD $18,000*

Eligible students participating through the partnership pathway may receive significant scholarship support.

Current scholarship opportunities may provide approximately:

80%–85% SCHOLARSHIP*

depending on eligibility and scholarship assessment results.

Illustrative tuition after scholarship may be approximately:

CAD $2,700–$3,600 PER YEAR*

For Indian families, this may be approximately:

₹1.8 LAKH–₹2.3 LAKH PER YEAR*

The actual tuition depends on factors including:

Scholarship result

Student's grade

Individual course plan

Official offer letter

Applicable fees

CAD/INR exchange rate

Students and parents should always refer to the official Victoria Academy offer letter for the final amount.

START WITH THE SCHOLARSHIP ASSESSMENT

The pathway can begin with a simple first step.

STEP 1

SCHOLARSHIP TEST / ASSESSMENT

Participate in the Victoria Academy scholarship assessment.

STEP 2

SCHOLARSHIP RESULT & OFFER LETTER

Eligible students receive their result and an official offer explaining scholarship, tuition and next steps.

STEP 3

REVIEW THE OFFER

Students and parents review the scholarship, program and payment arrangements.

STEP 4

ADMISSION & ACADEMIC REVIEW

Required academic documents and previous school records are reviewed.

STEP 5

PERSONALIZED COURSE PLANNING

An Ontario study plan is developed according to the student's grade, previous education and future goals.

STEP 6

STUDENT ORIENTATION

Students receive guidance on how to access their Canadian academic pathway.

STEP 7

CLASSES BEGIN

The student begins Ontario high school courses according to the approved study plan.

TRANSPARENT TUITION PAYMENT

Canadian tuition is paid:

DIRECTLY TO VICTORIA ACADEMY, CANADA

The partner school is not required to collect Victoria Academy tuition fees from parents.

Depending on the student's official offer and invoice terms, payment arrangements may include:

FULL PAYMENT

SEMI-ANNUAL PAYMENT

QUARTERLY PAYMENT

This creates a clear separation between the student's regular Indian school arrangements and the student's Canadian academic enrollment.

PARENTS REMAIN PART OF THE JOURNEY

Parents should understand how their child is progressing.

The Victoria Academy pathway can include:

STUDENT PROGRESS VISIBILITY

ACADEMIC GUIDANCE

COURSE PLANNING

ONTARIO CREDIT TRACKING

PARENT COMMUNICATION

UNIVERSITY PATHWAY GUIDANCE

The goal is not simply to give a student access to an online course.

The goal is to create a structured academic pathway.

Parents can remain informed as their child progresses.

S.B.N. INTER COLLEGE REMAINS PART OF THE STUDENT'S EDUCATIONAL JOURNEY

The collaboration is not designed to replace the student's existing relationship with S.B.N. Inter College.

Instead, it adds an international academic opportunity alongside the student's regular education.

Students can continue their school journey in Lucknow while Victoria Academy provides the Canadian academic component.

Collaboration activities may include:

Scholarship Tests

Student Awareness Sessions

Parent Orientation Sessions

Parent-Teacher Meetings

Academic Information Programs

Admission Guidance

Course Pathway Planning

Student Coordination Support

Victoria Academy provides the Canadian-side services, including admission processing, scholarship evaluation, online course delivery, academic reporting and student support.

OPENING GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES FROM LUCKNOW

Not every student will eventually study in the same country.

Not every student will choose the same university.

Not every student will follow the same career.

That is exactly why students benefit from having more options.

Through the S.B.N. Inter College and Victoria Academy collaboration, students can begin looking beyond one pathway and start thinking globally.

A student can study in Lucknow today while preparing for opportunities that may eventually take them to:

Canada.

The United States.

The United Kingdom.

Australia.

Europe.

Asia.

The UAE.

Or other destinations around the world.

The student's journey can begin locally while their future remains global.

WHY THIS COLLABORATION MATTERS

The biggest advantage is not simply another diploma.

It is:

OPPORTUNITY.

EXPOSURE.

PREPARATION.

CHOICE.

Students can continue their Indian education.

They can gain Canadian academic exposure.

They can explore global universities.

They can plan future subjects more strategically.

They can develop communication and critical-thinking skills.

They can build Canadian academic credentials.

They can explore scholarship opportunities.

And they can begin doing this:

WITHOUT IMMEDIATELY LEAVING THEIR SCHOOL, FAMILY OR COUNTRY.

FROM LUCKNOW CLASSROOMS TO GLOBAL POSSIBILITIES

A student's international future does not necessarily have to begin at an airport.

It can begin in the classroom.

It can begin at home.
