Indigenous Education Advisory Committee

As outlined in the Ontario First Nations, Métis and Inuit Policy Framework (2014) as developed by the Ontario Ministry of Education each school board in Ontario is to have a Indigenous Education Advisory Committee (IEAC). This committee is to be comprised of parents, community members, teachers, administrators, who identify as Indigenous or ally ship responsibilities.

This committee is deepening the framework implementation by developing working relationships with community, sharing information, identifying promising practices and work collaboratively to support First Nations, Métis and Inuit student achievement and well-being.

If you are interested in attending an IEAC meeting please contact Matt Baker, Indigenous Education Lead for Avon Maitland District School Board, via e-mail at [email protected].

Trustee Representative: Michael Bannerman

This committee is currently working on their Terms of Reference.
