If your child is already attending an EIPS school in the current year, you can register and pay for Diploma Prep courses by logging into the PowerSchool Parent Portal the same way you usually do to pay fees. You do not need to create a new Parent Portal account to register for Diploma Prep.

Once you are logged into the Parent Portal...

Select the student fees icon (the green dollar sign) under the navigation menu

Click on the appropriate student’s name tab that you want to register

Select the appropriate Next Step Diploma Prep course(s) in which you’d like to register

Pay for the item/s in your cart

Students are not considered registered unless payment for the Diploma Prep course is made at the time of check-out.

Please note: Each of your children already attending an EIPS school must be linked to your Parent Portal account in order for you to be able to view and pay their fees through this system. Visit our PowerSchool page for instructions on how to create a Parent Portal account and link all of your children to that single account.

Diploma Exams

Diploma Exams are administered to students in select grade 12 courses and have three main purposes:

  • to certify the level of individual student achievement in selected grade 12 courses
  • to ensure that province-wide standards of achievement are maintained
  • to report individual and group results
