Minister Announces New Education Act

Posted by admin on April 27, 2011

With the introduction of the Act today, we have a number of information resources available online that will answer many of your questions about what’s changing and why. I encourage you to share these resources with your school communities. Visit www.education.alberta.ca/educationact for more information.

In the coming months, the ministry will be engaged in face-to-face discussions with many education stakeholders on the intent and impacts of the proposed Act. As well, an online engagement forum will provide Albertans an opportunity to learn more about the Act, and contribute to discussions about education in Alberta and how new legislation can help us achieve our vision for student success. Visit our engagement site at www.education.alberta.ca/engage to join the conversation.

This is an exciting time for education in Alberta, one that we will look back in history and know that we all played a part in making happen.
