| Strategic
Priorities – Focus on Learning
Catholic Identity
The London
District Catholic School Board is dedicated to success for all students
in a learning environment that fosters the dignity and value of each
learner through faith-development and academic excellence. Student
Success focuses on literacy, numeracy, pathways and community, culture
and caring. While its primary focus is working with students identified
as at risk due to attendance, disengagement, achieving at or below
level one or lack of accumulated credits for graduation; Student Success
supports all students through resource and professional development
across the system.
In
partnership with the Program Department, Student Success
- Promotes the importance
of individual learning success within a community of learning
- Facilitates the development
of teaching strategies that supports the need for differentiate learning
experiences in order to address a variety of student needs
- Offers temporary alternative
educational experiences for students who are at risk
- Allocates resources
to support individual school initiatives for student success
- Focuses on data collection
and analysis to improve student learning for all students
- Fosters the continued
development of a distinctly Catholic education for all students through
the integration of the Ontario Catholic Graduate Expectations
Student
Success has held professional development workshops for teachers across
the system in areas such as differentiated learning, literacy development,
math manipulatives, the development of essential skills for the workplace,
building pathways and working with at risk students. Student Success
continues to work with schools to develop the necessary resources,
both human and material, to help each and every student succeed.
