Is secondary school (WES) required?

Hello to all,

I have a simple question but it is hard to find an answer to this.

My plan is to apply with a foreign work experience I gained while studying at the same time, and according to this NOC it requires only secondary degree.
The possible problem is that I have evaluated at WES only my bachelor and master degree.
In this case, is it necessary to evaluate high school as well, since it is obvious that I had high school degree at that point (because I was studying at the time).

It would be highly appreciated if anymore could help :)
Thanks a lot!

Only the highest educational qualification needs to be assessed, so you're fine..

thanks @PrasadK , your answer means a lot!

I would like to hear more people opinion`s. Generally, I know that assessment of the highest degree is enough,
but the thing is that an immigration lawyer was telling me that for this NOC 1221, you have to have evaluated high school degree,
especially because at that time I haven`t finished University.

But I was studying so it is obvious that I had high school as well.

It is complicated... :)

Consultants are useless and know nothing. You should fire your consultant.

Only the highest degree needs to be evaluated. Also, it is not necessary that the work experience accrued by you has to be after you obtain your highest degree. [As long as it is foreign]

Thank you for your answer, it is truly appreciated.

Most of the consultants try to resolve their client problems by asking questions here and at some popular facebook groups. Consultants need to be aware of the whole procedure and all laws. They are not aware of anything. Stay away from them.
