Aboriginal Education Support Program
at School District No. 46 (Sunshine Coast)
The Aboriginal Education Support Program travels in Four Directions……
We work with students and teachers in classrooms. We establish relationships with and directly support students of Aboriginal Ancestry so that they can reach and go beyond their goals for academic achievement and graduation. We provide a variety of services from counselling to advocacy work to creating individual learning plans to help students succeed.
In classrooms, we provide and facilitate Aboriginal cultural sharing and meaningful explorations of history/present/future for Aboriginal and all students.
We seek advice from, consult with, and give voice to parents and the Aboriginal community so they can guide us in how best to support Aboriginal students in school.
We support students and families through the transitions associated with school years and beyond.

 We also provide support and assistance to classroom teachers and school administration.
This support is so that teachers can accurately, respectfully, and confidently teach about the contributions and cultures of Aboriginal peoples in Canada. The support is also so that the teachers can best meet the learning needs of each Aboriginal student in their classrooms and courses. |
