We we're supposed to have done away with academic streaming in the 1990s (anyone remember Basic, General and Advanced classes?). Yet it persists and York University professor Carl James persists that there's a bias in the system, who has found multiple cases of Black students being encouraged to take Applied rather than Academic course by teachers and guidance counselors.
