Enhancing Student Learning

SD83’s Enhancing Student Learning Plan (Framework for Enhancing Student Learning)

In 2016 the B.C. Ministry of Education shared the draft Framework for Enhancing Student Learning,  which reflects a public commitment by education partners to work together to continuously improve student learning for each student, and to address long-standing differences in performance amongst particular groups of students, most notably Indigenous students, children in care, and students with special needs.

The Framework for Enhancing Student Learning:

  1. is grounded in the belief that all education partners are responsible for student learning, with each having unique responsibilities
  2. creates a system-wide focus on student learning, to ensure each student in BC achieves his or her full potential
  3. is meaningful, impactful, flexible, realistic, and sustainable
  4. addresses differences in performance among particular groups of students, most notably Aboriginal students, children in care, and students with special needs
  5. is strength, support, evidence, and results-based
  6. reflects system-wide commitment to continuous improvement and life-long learning
  7. continues to build public confidence in BC’s education system
