Framework Review Program: Sector Volunteers

The Framework for Enhancing Student Learning (Framework) formalizes the planning and reporting expectations for school districts and reflects a public commitment for Indigenous peoples, education partners and communities to work together to continuously improve student learning outcomes. To assist the board in implementing the Framework, the Ministry of Education and Child Care has committed to a modified annual peer review approach based on feedback and recommendations received this past year, with the purpose of engaging in a collaborative assessment process of reviewing district strategic planning and enhancing student learning reporting.

The responsibility would involve a 2-year time commitment as described in the attached Sector Volunteers Expression of Interest document. If you are interested in applying to volunteer, please complete the attached Volunteer Application Form. Applicants must have approval from their supervisor/district prior to submitting interest. The deadline for submitting your application to kevin@bcpvpa.bc.ca is Thursday June 30, 2022.
