Commitment to Equity, Diversity, Dignity, and Inclusion
The Lester B. Pearson School Board is invested in actions that will result in positive change for students, staff, and families, and serve as a catalyst for meaningful, long-term systemic change.
Our commitment to EDDI organizes our actions around 4 pillars:
Professional Development
Supporting individuals in schools, centres, and departments.
Educational Resources
Creating choice and informed opportunity for schools.
Regulations and Policy
Being intentionally inclusive and free from bias.
Infrastructure
Providing accessibility for all.
Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Dignity, and Inclusion is a framework which facilitates the process of addressing the recommendations that came from the Task Force on EDDI, published in August 2021.
