At KidsAbility School Authority, we believe that all students can learn and our responsibility is to enable each and every student to learn effectively, to reduce achievement gaps and to improve learning outcomes for all, regardless of race, class, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and other historical forms of marginalization .
KidsAbility School Authority upholds the principles of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Constitution Act, 1982 and confirmed in the Ontario Human Rights Code (the “Code”). KidsAbility School Authority and its staff are also committed to the elimination of all types of discrimination as outlined in Ontario’s Equity and Inclusive Education Strategy (the “Strategy”) and the Ontario Ministry of Education (the “Ministry”) Policy/Program Memorandum No. 119. KidsAbility School Authority recognizes that equity of opportunity and equity of access to the full range of programs, the delivery of services and resources are critical to the achievement of successful educational and social outcomes for students, staff, parents and the wider community.
KidsAbility School Authority is, therefore, committed to an equitable education system that upholds and reflects the principles of fair and inclusive education which should permeate all policies, programs, practices and operations.
