| Abstract | Between July 1974 and July 1975, an overall review and appraisal was conducted to evaluate the functions, administration, operation, and services of Canada's Northland School Division Number 61 (a special division created in 1960 under the Northland School Division Act to improve educational services to the outlying, chiefly northern communities in Alberta composed principally of American Indian and Metis peoples). The study design included a three-member team and: visits to all Northland Schools (N=30); meetings with all school staff; public meetings held in each Northland Community; written briefs submitted by people outside the Northland Division; sub-studies (N=4); consultations with representative advisory groups; visits to other northern school jurisdictions; and extensive consultations with the trustees. Major findings were: (1) the academic achievement of students in Northland was considerably below the provincial norm; (2) the transiency and generally poor qualifications of Northland teachers had contributed to poor achievement in the schools; (3) the governing and administrative procedures in Northland needed to be revised to permit a greater degree of local involvement and self-direction. One hundred specific recommendations were made re: governance; curriculum; pupils and services; high school services; teaching staff; supervisory staff; school buildings and grounds; teachers' residences; maintenance; libraries, supplies, and equipment; business and finance; etc. (JC) |
