Schools are free to adopt, adapt, or
change any of these policies for their specific school's situation and
use. To the best of ACSI's knowledge, the sample policies from
Canadian schools conform to current Canadian/provincial laws and
educational standards, but to ensure compliance, each school should have
all policies developed reviewed by a competent lawyer familiar with
education/law in their province. Also please note that educational laws do
change from year to year so please pay careful attention to legal updates
sent from our office and elsewhere.
Please note that any
sample policies included from other countries (e.g., USA, Britain,
Australia, etc.) will need careful adaptation to meet provincial/federal
laws and procedures.
Schools are urged at minimum to develop
policies in the areas suggested in the Sample Table of Contents.
In the interest of helping all schools
access information/samples in order to create a satisfactory School Policy
Manual we request the following:
·
Where there is a need for policy
information not included in this website, please contact the ACSI Eastern
Canada office for help;
·
Where a school has a good policy already
developed which is not listed in the compendium but which currently is
becoming pertinent to member schools, we request that the school send us a
sample/information.
We wish to express our appreciation to
Evelyn Hewitt (policy project leader) and her crew for putting together
this website, and to those schools who agreed to allow their policies to be
made available to ACSI Eastern Canada and our member schools for adaptation
and use.
