EDUCATIONAL CHANGE. 1. The Board recognizes the changing educational needs of the District and supports the principle that teachers, who are directly affected, should be consulted and have input into the implementation of such changes. 2. Towards this end, the Board shall form ad-hoc educational change committees, each of which is intended to deal with particular educational changes and/or curriculum development matters. The membership of these committees shall be established in consultation with the Association. The President of the Association, or designate, shall be an ex-officio member of each such committee. The mandate of these committees shall be to investigate, analyze and make recommendations to the Board on the particular educational change and/or curriculum development matter in question, including recommending how the Board should disburse the monies it has allocated for implementation. 3. The funding required to support these committees in meeting their mandate shall be determined by the Board, at the time each such committee is formed, after consultation with the Association. 4. The Board shall make information available to the above referenced committees regarding the funding which the Board has received from the Ministry and/or allocated for implementation of the particular educational change and/or curriculum development matter in question. 5. Where a school is to undergo a major renovation which will result in the full or partial displacement of a significant portion of the student body, an educational change ad hoc committee shall be struck to investigate, analyze and make recommendations to the Board regarding alternative arrangements which might be implemented.
