(CBC) The Thames Valley District School Board will conduct a student survey this school year, focused on identifying the ethnicities of its families.
“We don’t actually have that data just yet in our board,” said board assistant principal Doriana Rosati. “I mean the entire province is looking to make sure we can all answer that kind of question, because it does make a difference.”
“We want kids to see themselves in what they learn and we need to know who we are as a board,” she said.
“We found that data is extremely important when it comes to understanding the needs of our students,” said outreach coordinator with the National Council of Canadian Muslims, Aasiyah Khan.
