Classroom
“If we are to succeed, we must draw on our
experience and on research that tells us that
student achievement will improve when barriers
to inclusion are identified and removed, and
when all students are respected and see
themselves reflected in their learning and their
environment. Everyone in the school community
benefits from a school environment that is safe,
accepting, and respectful.”

Practical Tips for Educators
“We believe that Ontario’s diversity can be one
of its greatest assets.
To realize the promise of diversity, we must
ensure that we respect and value the full range
of our differences. Equitable, inclusive
education is also central to creating a cohesive
society and a strong economy that will secure
Ontario’s future prosperity.”

Practical Tips for Educators
“Our schools should be places where students
not only learn about diversity but experience it.
We know that when students see themselves
reflected in their studies, they are more likely
to stay engaged and find school relevant …
Schools must also be safe, respectful places for
students and staff.”
