- Abstract:
Addresses the question of how the education system responds to the needs of immigrant students on arrival in Vancouver, Canada, focusing on reception classes. The Oakridge Reception and Orientation Centre (OROC) was created to serve various functions for such students, including ascertaining their literacy backgrounds and assigning them to appropriate grade levels, English-as-a-Second-Language programs, and schools.
