Field trips are an important aspect of students’ education experience, providing positive learning experiences for students across grade levels and schools in the District. Recently, staff have undertaken a review of Policy P.029.SCO Field Trips, Excursions, Educational Tours, and Student Exchanges and associated procedures, with a view to modernizing them and ensuring they are aligned with the District’s current processes and priorities. As part of the review of the policy, equity gaps were identified which need to be addressed, in addition to other changes to ensure the policy is better aligned with current practice.
A revised draft of the policy will be presented to the Committee of the Whole on 07 February 2023 for discussion to solicit the community feedback and answer any questions. If you are interested in participating in this meeting, please consult the meeting agenda. We also welcome your feedback on the revised draft by emailing [email protected] by February 24, 2023.
The final policy will be presented for approval to the Board of Trustees on March 28, 2023.
