Responding to the Census Data
In response to the Student and Staff Census, a number of steps have already been undertaken. The following is a brief summary of the work underway.
Continue to examine disparities and disproportionalities in opportunities and outcomes in order to:
- Identify gaps in student experiences (e.g., sense of belonging, etc.), disparities in programming and outcomes related to systemic barriers
- Identify gaps in representation across union groups and leadership roles and staff experiences (e.g., discriminatory barriers, work climate, well-being)
Prepare action plans that align with the Multi Year Plan
- Support schools and service departments in examining and using their data in order to respond to areas of disparities and disproportionalities
- Support school administrators in implementing PPM 165 (Teaching Hiring Practices) with a focus on human rights and equity competencies
Continue stakeholder engagement
- Engage with advisory committees and public stakeholders to inform and guide action plans
