SEAC feedback
For those of you with school age children in the GTA, did you know that we have Special Education Advisory Representatives on 4 school boards? They are parents and family members just like you.
Toronto District School Board
Durham District School Board
Durham Catholic District School Board
Peel District School Board
According to The Education Act, every board of education in Ontario is required to have a Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC). This committee is made up of volunteer representatives from local associations that work to further the interests and well-being of one or more groups of exceptional children or adults. The SEAC representatives make recommendations to the boards of education about the establishment and development of special education programs and services for exceptional students.
What are these boards doing well? More importantly, where do they need to improve where our children are concerned? How have you or your child experienced overt anti-Black racism or micro-aggressions in your dealings with the school and larger board?
These are the issues this team of Sawubona volunteers want to hear about and advocate on your behalf.
If you want to connect with any of our SEAC representatives, let us know at bpsgroup2020@gmail.com or info@sawubonaacs.org and we will get you connected.
