Education Agenda for Student Success 2002-2006
The Kindergarten to Senior 4 Education Agenda for Student Success (the K-S4 Agenda) was an evolving, shared plan of action involving Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth working collaboratively with educational communities across the province. It intended to improve public education in Manitoba, particularly student learning and performance. The K-S4 Agenda was developed through public consultation during 2001 and 2002 and implemented from 2002 to 2006. Although it did not encompass all of the work within the education system, the Agenda expressed a set of six priorities for public education in the province that complemented the work that was already taking place in many schools. These six priorities were:
- Improving outcomes especially for less successful learners;
- Strengthening links among schools, families and communities;
- Strengthening school planning and reporting;
- Improving professional learning opportunities for educators;
- Strengthening pathways among secondary schools, post-secondary education and work;
- Linking policy and practice to research evidence.
The K-S4 Agenda identified specific actions that were intended to advance each of the priorities.
What follows are the actions for each priority that were originally identified in Manitoba K-S4, Education Agenda for Student Success 2002-2006, released by the department in August 2002.
