Special Education Services: A Manual of Policies, Procedures and Guidelines

B.5 Students

All students should be afforded opportunities to learn in environments that are safe and welcoming. Students with special needs should have their needs identified in a timely way, have these needs assessed in a comprehensive manner, and receive an appropriate response to those strengths and needs in the delivery of educational programs for them. Many students with special needs can contribute to the process of assessment and planning for their own educational programs, and provide an evaluation of the services available to them.

Students have the responsibility to comply with the school rules authorized by the principal, and with the code of conduct or any other rules and policies established by the school board (School Act, section 6).
