Sample Early Literacy Intervenion Categorical Reports

 

Manitoba Education, Citizenship and Youth aims to improve educational planning. (See Priority 3 of the K-S4 Agenda, Strengthening School Planning and Reporting.) Effective planning helps ensure that attention and effort are placed where they are most needed. Over the last three years, the department has emphasized outcomes-oriented planning, evaluating results and reporting to the community. Expectations for 2008/09 are outlined in the Letter to School Division ( 116 KB).

The document Supporting Inclusive Schools: School-Based Planning and Reporting: A Framework for Developing and Implementing Annual School Plans and Reports, outlines key planning concepts and provides suggestions that may assist school communities with their planning processes.

Departmental Planning
The department has several public components to its own planning process. The main one is the Manitoba K-S4 Education Agenda for Student Success: 2002-2006. The Agenda was developed through broad consultation with individual and organizational stakeholders. An update report was posted to the website. Related components of department planning include:

Divisional Planning
For the 2008/09 school year, school divisions are still required to report to their communities. Reporting to the department has been changed to a three year cycle which includes written reports and division visits every third year. A detailed explanation is provided in the February 2007 Letter to the Field (PDF ICon 118 KB). Divisions can use the following templates to organize the required information. Divisions can choose the format and timing of the community reports.

Schools are now required to provide a written report to the department every third year at the end of October. A suggested template for reporting to the department is provided below.
