The provincial government has publicly released the long-awaited Education Accord.
The 410-page document is being touted as a 10-year vision that will help modernize and transform the province’s education system from early learning up through post-secondary.
It includes 110 calls to action, which are divided under four pillars: Health and wellbeing in education environments, early learning and childhood development, education engagement and transformation in the K-12 system, and post-secondary education and learning across the lifespan.
It covers a vast array of topics including the social determinants of learning, chronic absenteeism, curriculum, connections with health and social programs, professional learning, and developing an ecosystem approach to support the transition from K-12
