First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Education Plan

Vision Statement:

“First Nation, Métis, and Inuit students in Ontario will have the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to successfully complete their elementary and secondary education in order to pursue postsecondary education or training and/or to enter the workforce. They will have the traditional and contemporary knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to be socially contributive, politically active, and economically prosperous citizens of the world. All students in Ontario will have knowledge and appreciation of contemporary and traditional First Nation, Métis, and Inuit traditions, cultures, and perspectives.”

- Implementation Plan: Ontario, First Nation, Métis & Inuit Framework Policy, 2007

Beliefs About First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Education

We believe First Nation, Métis, and Inuit students:

  • must be heard on an ongoing basis and their voice must impact educational directions.
  • must be supported by First Nation, Métis, and Inuit families, communities, initiatives and organizations.
  • are effectively served by hiring practices that reflect and respect the cultural identity of school populations.
  • need to feel that initiatives and supports are delivered in an inclusive and sensitive manner.

We believe First Nation, Métis, and Inuit students thrive when:

  • systemic barriers to educational success are identified and removed.
  • learning environments and support programs are engaging, inclusive, holistic, and culturally relevant.
  • unique and creative programs are employed by all educatiors, system staff, and trustees.
  • First Nation, Métis, and Inuit educators, support staff, role models, and elders are accessible to all students.

We Value:

  • Respect
  • Responsibility
  • Peace (Acceptance)
  • Friendship
  • Righteousness
  • Equity & Inclusiveness
  • Perseverance
  • Empowerment
  • Humility
  • Sustainability of Mother Earth
  • Native Language and Native Studies
  • Self-Determination
  • Altruism (Selflessness)
  • Treaty Rights
  • Post-Secondary Education
  • Social Justice
  • Indigenous Knowledge
  • Ceremonies and Teachings
