Violence Prevention & Crisis Response in NB schools … why can’t I find updated NB DOE Policies??
Keeping our Schools Safe: A Protocol for Violence Prevention and Crisis Response in New Brunswick Schools.
I’m an internet information junkie like many of the readers of this community forum.
But I’m also a responsible citizen trying to parent and raise a family in a challenging time.
I figured a second thread related to the school violence was in order as our New Brunswick Internet Highway may be
lacking updated Education policies on our wonderful New Brunswick Government website – I can’t find them, can you?
www.gnb.ca (http://www.gnb.ca)
Government of New Brunswick - Department of Education
http://www.gnb.ca/0000/index-e.asp
http://www.gnb.ca/0000/policies.asp (http://www.gnb.ca/0000/policies.asp) which lists all the Education Policies.Sadly the following policies are flagged as "Policy in Effect"
Under Health and Safety:
Policy #701 - Policy for the Protection of Pupils NOTE: Last Revised 2004I encourage all parents read this document and file a request to have it updated with the Department of Education.
Policy #701 also comes with a Form link right below it labelled "Appendix A-Complaint Summary Form"
--> This form is to be used for complaints of non-professional conduct. It can be made against the following: Pupil, Teacher, School Administrator, District Administrator, Parent/Guardian, DOE Staff or Other Person.
Next under Health and Safety: Policy #705 - Crisis Planning
This covers School and School District Crisis Planning NOTE: Last Revised July 2001.
Addresses aspects of violence prevention and crisis response in schools.
The policy provides a protocol for crisis planning to be implemented at the school and school district levels, which is adaptable to a variety of critical events.
And contains the link to http://www.gnb.ca/0000/publications/ss/keepschoolsafe.pdf. (http://www.gnb.ca/0000/publications/ss/keepschoolsafe.pdf)
There’s various phone numbers on the pages and documents –
Can anyone shed any light on the right road to the Department of Education
and how we can find out if there’s more updates planned for our children’s Education Policies ??
