TDSB Central Student Interest Programs Updates:
Admissions to
Central Student Interest Programs When the Board voted to improve access to specialized schools and programs
at our meeting in May, Chair Alexander Brown articulated the why - “It is our responsibility to take
action to improve access for all students where we identify systemic
barriers. This new policy will ensure a greater number of students have
access to these high quality programs and schools while reducing barriers
that have long-prevented many students from even applying.” As outlined in last
week's update, all programs, including the Arts will be moving forward with
consistent, interest-based admissions criteria in November 2022 for the
2023-24 school year. Central Staff have been working with school teams and
the various programs to collaboratively set the admission criteria for each
program. Applications
for central student interest programs (e.g. Arts, International
Baccalaureate) open on November 7, 2022 and close on November 25 at 4:00
p.m. The following programs have finalized their application
details and are now available online:
Program webpages
will continue to be updated as soon as application details are finalized in
the coming weeks. Arts Program Structure - Program structure
is the way the program is organized with courses and key areas of focus, such
as dance or performing arts. In secondary arts programs, each school has its
own unique structure. To provide more access to programming to students in
the areas where applications are higher, arts schools are reviewing and
revising their program structures to provide greater flexibility and
choice. Additionally, schools are considering new course offerings to
further enhance the dynamic and engaging experience for students and ensure
that a variety of students see themselves reflected in the curriculum. Longstanding
structures take time to change and secondary arts schools have been offered
an additional year to address these complex changes to ensure that the work
is successful. While some schools
will be prepared to share their new program structure with students and
parents/caregivers/guardians this fall, other Arts-focused schools are still
in the early stages of this work and will develop their program structure
over the course of this school year for implementation in 2024-25. During this school
year, Senior Staff will continue to focus on collaborating with teachers,
administrators, superintendents and central staff to manage these changes as
effectively as possible while working towards full implementation of this
component of the policy. Together, we will work to build culturally affirming
and responsive, inclusive, modern, and high-caliber programs with equitable
access and outcomes so that all TDSB students feel they belong and are
successful.
