The Nova Scotia government is looking to the public to develop a better model for inclusive education.
The Commission on Inclusive Education is holding public workshops this month.
On its website, it is asking for frank, respectful, and student-centred conversation that can make a difference to the future of inclusive education in the province.
Education Minister Zach Churchill says the current model of inclusion is not serving the best interests of everybody in the system.
He says the Commission will take a hard look at it.
Churchill says the group of experts have been appointed by the NSTU and government.
“They are consulting with every single community of interest in the education system. They have met with teachers and they’re discussing this with principals, parents and of course the broader public input is important to this process as well.”
The Commission on Inclusive Education will be in Yarmouth on November 21st at YCMHS.
The workshop runs from 6:30 to 9pm.
