The OCDSB is developing a new strategic plan for 2023-2027. Between November 2022 and March 2023, we engaged the community through multiple consultation pathways in order to set the direction and develop objectives for a 2023-2027 Strategic Plan that is meaningful to our students, staff and families.
The consultation was designed to gather stories and feedback in order to compile and understand ideas on what the community thinks can be done to improve student learning and well-being. We used a range of strategies, across various formats and geographic locations, with support in multiple languages, to make participation as equitable and accessible as possible.
Six recurring themes emerged throughout the consultation, and were largely consistent across participant groups. It is worth noting that there is a great deal of interconnectedness among the six themes, and overlap in insights presented under each. The six themes are: Learning, Well-being and Belonging, Teaching, School and Classroom Environment, Curriculum and Programs, and Board and Administration.

What's next?
The information gathered through the consultation and environmental scan has been used to shape a draft strategic plan that outlines the OCDSB’s mission, values, and areas of focus for 2023-2027. This version is a working copy, on which suggestions and feedback are welcomed by emailing [email protected]. Once the content is finalized, the strategic plan will be designed, branded, and shared with the Board for final approval in June.
