Fairness in BC’s public schools
Ongoing Ombudsperson investigation
Home / Fairness in public schools
Are BC schools fair when asking students to stay home? We’re investigating.
In December 2024, we started an investigation to examine the circumstances in which BC’s public K-12 schools are asking or telling students not to attend school. We will assess whether those practices are fair for all students, especially those with diverse abilities who end up at home with little or no support or time with teachers and classmates.
We want to hear from you!
Please complete our questionnaire. It is confidential. It will take about 10 minutes.
Your input will help us understand what is happening in schools across BC.
It is important for our investigation to hear directly from students and their families.
This questionnaire is for all students and families of students who attend or have attended a BC K-12 school.
We recognize the hard work of professionals in our K-12 schools. It is important for our investigation to hear directly from you.
This questionnaire is for teachers, education assistants, principals and vice principals, speech and language pathologists, occupational therapists, psychologists, teachers of deaf and hard of hearing, physiotherapists, counsellors, nurses and others who work with students.
