dc.description.abstractStrategic planning in public education in British Columbia is considered by the Ministry of Education and Childcare to be an idea tool for learning about how a given school district plans to help its students become educated citizens. The second strategic plan for Sooke Schools District 62 (SD62) places an emphasis on ensuring that students understand and become competent with issues regarding inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA). However, this mixed methods capstone project revealed the communications barriers which are preventing some parents, guardians, and caregivers from being able to fully support IDEA becoming a more integral part of their children’s education. The findings of this capstone project recommend that to alleviate this issue, some implementation activities can be undertaken in the next school year and others may become strategic plan objectives for the forthcoming strategic plan. Further research may be able to divine other types of implementation activities which may also support IDEA-related strategic objectives in other school districts in Canada and around the world.en_US
