Original Post

The Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington (PVNC) Catholic District School Board is seeking public consultation on the development of its Administrative Procedure 705 - Indigenous Education.

PVNC Catholic acknowledges that Indigenous people have lived with this land since time immemorial and that Indigenous Education has a unique place in our Education system as guaranteed by the province’s First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework released in 2007.

PVNC Catholic is committed to establishing and strengthening relationships with First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, and incorporating the history and world views of Indigenous peoples throughout the Board. It is committed to Truth and Reconciliation and will implement the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action as they relate to education.
