LINDSAY, ON – Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) has announced the launch of the School Climate Survey beginning today, May 6, and will close on May 10.
The School Climate Survey assists the Board and schools in understanding how students experience school supports, social and emotional learning, as well as their feelings on a safe and inclusive environment. The information collected helps TLDSB grow in the area of providing learning environments that foster equity, inclusion, and belonging.
“TLDSB seeks to hear directly from students about how they are feeling at school.” said TLDSB Director of Education, Wes Hahn. “We hope all Grade 4 to 12 students complete the survey, as the information collected will help schools and TLDSB gain a deeper understanding of the student experience.”
There are two surveys – one for students in Grades 4-8 and one for students in Grades 9-12. Within the survey, students will be asked questions on engagement, mental health, school safety, and inclusivity. Students will be given class time to complete the online survey.
“We want to hear about the school culture and it is the student’s who can best provide this information,” explained Associate Superintendent of Learning, Tanya Fraser. “There are no wrong answers and identifying information is not collected, so we hope students answer with confidence knowing that they can help make a difference.”
