      STATEMENT OF GOVERNANCE POLICY

      Policy No. 302.6.11
        
      Adopted Date: May 25, 2021

      The Niagara Catholic District School Board (the “Board”) is committed to promoting, supporting and sustaining a safe, inclusive, and accepting learning and teaching environment for all students and staff to reach their full potential and become living witnesses of Christ.

       

      The Education Act provides the Principal of the subject school with the authority to impose an exclusion of individuals from the school or class in order to uphold the physical or mental well-being of students and staff in the school.

       

      The exclusion of a student is not a form of discipline, but instead a tool available to the Principal under the Education Act .  

       

      An individual who is subject to an exclusion has a right to appeal same in accordance with the Administrative Operational Procedures set out by the Director of Education and the Education Act.

       

      The Director of Education will issue Administrative Operational Procedures for the implementation of this Policy.
