SHAPING THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION: A SHARED VISION

CO-CONSTRUCTING A PROVINCIAL EDUCATION PLAN

Beyond 2020

The current Education Sector Strategic Plan (ESSP) ends in 2020. The Ministry of Education is leading the co-construction of a new plan. This is our opportunity, as locally elected boards, to represent local perspectives and community voice as we work towards a new vision for education that will form the basis for a Provincial Education Plan and set a course for the sector from 2020 to 2030.

SSBA and Board Engagements

• The SSBA formed an Education Visioning Working

Advisory Group (WAG) to lead and support boards.

• A package to support engagements has been

distributed to all boards.

• School board led engagements have already begun

at the local level and are expected to conclude by May 31, 2019.

• We encourage all trustees to leverage existing
• pportunities, to engage and have conversations

about the future of education in your communities and with your staff.

The Questions

• 1. What knowledge, skills and abilities do students

need to be prepared for their future life and learning? Why are these important?

• 2. What gets in the way of student success and well-

being?

• 3. What is working well now in Saskatchewan’s school

system that prepares students for their future?

• 4. What needs to change in Saskatchewan’s school

system to better prepare students for their future?

Online Survey

The survey can be completed online until May 10, 2019 https://www.saskatchewan.ca/government/public- consultations/provincial-education-plan/provide-your- feedback There is a version for “students” and “non-students” - in both official languages. The survey results will allow for reporting by school division (if participants selected a division).

Next Steps

• By May 31 – following the board engagement

sessions, all boards are encouraged to summarize what was heard in to themes and then submit all summaries to the SSBA.

• Based on all the submissions the SSBA will prepare a

report on behalf of school boards to be submitted to the Minister of Education in the fall.

• A Provincial Education Plan (Planning Team) will co-

construct the framework for the Plan.
