Guidelines and Procedures

The policies of the Department of Education reflect the programs and legislative mandates of three department branches: Advanced Education Branch; Education Support Services Branch and Public Schools Branch.

Initiation of new Policy or Policy Revision

All suggestions, recommendations or requests for the development or revision of a policy will be considered.

A school committee, school council, parent group or member of the public may suggest, in writing, the need for a policy or policy revision to be included in the Department of Education Policy Manual.

Written requests for policy development or revision should be forwarded to the Director, Policy, Planning and Evaluation (PPE), Department of Education. Requests will be reviewed and prioritized by the Executive Management Committee of the Department.

In consultation with the Executive Management Committee, the Policy, Planning and Evaluation Branch will periodically create a work plan to ensure that all required policy issues are dealt with on a timely basis.

A work plan does not preclude any school council, committee, board, parent, member of the public or branch from bringing forward a suggestion for policy work or policy revision on a priority basis, where required.

Roles and Responsibilities

Upon receiving a request to develop or revise a policy, the Director of PPE will conduct the policy development process in a consultative way with the responsible sponsoring Branch and/or agency.

This includes working with the requesting agency or branch to identify issues and affected stakeholder groups, develop a consultation plan, establish timing, approval and cost assessment and ensure the policy complies with all corporate and legislative obligations.

Policy Approval

Policies will be approved by the Executive Management Committee and signed off by the Deputy Minister.
