Provide Feedback on Policies
PROVIDING FEEDBACK ON POLICIES
Each board policy under review will be open for feedback from students, parents, staff, community members and other stakeholders. We are not able to respond to your input, but the feedback you provide will be analyzed and considered during policy review and development.
Policy development and review is guided by Board Policy CH.BP - Framework for Policy Development and Review.
POLICIES CURRENTLY OPEN FOR REVIEW
HFA.BP Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Gender Expression
Draft considered by the Board of Trustees: May 14, 2024
Open for feedback: May 15, 2024
The first draft of the revised policy was approved at the May 14, 2024 Board meeting.
To provide feedback:
Staff, students, families and community members are invited to share their feedback on the draft policies through an online survey.
The purpose of this policy is to reflect the Board’s mandated responsibility and expectation for providing a welcoming, inclusive, safe and healthy learning and working environment throughout the Division. The policy does not direct or influence the official curriculum taught in Edmonton Public Schools; Division schools follow the Kindergarten to Grade 12 curriculum, as set by Alberta Education.
Revisions to this policy began in November 2023 and ensure language is up to date and aligns with language in the Alberta Human Rights Act. These changes do not impact the purpose or direction of the policy from its original intent.
The survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer the survey. Your participation will inform the Board’s final draft of this policy.
