Diversity Education

Diversity Education provides support to students, school staff, parents and community stakeholders.

The major work of the unit is guided by two policies:

Multicultural Education (GGAB.BP)
Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (HFA.BP)

Diversity Education provides research-based professional learning, tools, resources and cultural awareness to schools to support narrowing the achievement gap for students who are English Language Learners (ELL), or who come from diverse backgrounds. The unit also focuses on engaging with community partners, provincially funded organizations and non-profit groups who deliver programs to ELL and diverse students in schools.
