Province releases findings of Student First consultations
The Saskatchewan government has wrapped up its investigation into what students want in their classrooms to help them graduate.
The Student First engagement process sent two advisors across the province to find out what students, parents and teachers thought could be done to boost the province’s high school graduation rates.
“Before we talked about administrative needs, ministerial needs, ministry needs but what we weren't doing well enough was saying, 'What's important to the child and the people being educated?'” education minister Don Morgan said.
Following a year-long process and more than 2,000 consultations, advisors Russ Mirasty and Patricia Prowse released their findings in a document entitled Student First Engagement Discussion Guide.
