I listen to a lot about'our team having good partnerships with the institution boards as well as trying to relocate things forward in terms of the possession side of things. Yet I likewise hear a few of the trouble as well as some of the obstacles that we have. We are 100% in a better relationship. However I additionally require to know where where ' s the hold up? Why? Why do I need to remove my children'from the public system as well as placed them into the Catholic system? Since I really feel like they do have the assistance, specifically for psychological health. We desire youngsters to feel comfy speaking about mental health as well as when groups and independently.

Thanks. Okay. So many thanks significantly, everybody,. for having me right here this evening basically. My name is Laura Zach Glen. And also I ' m the Vision Zero Program. Lead at'the city of Mississauga. And also I'' m really thrilled for the chance. to show you about this pilot project that the city of Mississauga took on last year with the support of the Peel. Area School Board. And without further ado. No. So we can deal with the slides. I'wear ' t have control over them. Thank you. It ' s frequently seen as something to hurry through in-between between. And when we make this trip. an energetic one. Strolling, riding bikes or also driving cart. when strolling the rest, as lots of benefits for our kids from helping. prepare their minds to discover, to assisting with their growth as well as development,. to even boosting their psychological wellness. And also these benefits expand. to the caregivers walking to them as well. The advantages go beyond the person. And also significantly, when families have. the possibility to connect with room as opposed to shielded.

within their individual vehicle, it creates a sense of link. amongst community members who may not otherwise ever before reach satisfy. Next slide, please. Yet what did the data state about just how pupils in Peel Region. reach school? According to stats from quit. are 68% of trainees in the PDF to be real-time within walking. range of their institution. Nonetheless, study information. from the Transport Tomorrow study suggests the traveling by auto is really one of the most prevalent. In 2021, the city of Mississauga. they created a record of the results.

And also I ' ve included the QR code. web link to that record on the last flight of my satisfaction choice. If you ' re thinking about obtaining it out, remarkably in York region,. it was really the York Area Institution Board that was the lead. on the pilot, not in attire. What precisely is a school st. and also exactly how does it function? Well, in a nutshell, a school street. for students and family members who are passing by active modes. to college. It creates a setting where neighborhood participants can remain. as well as use instead of rush. Susceptible road. individuals are not relegated to the walkways. They don ' t need to fret about. Our team in Mississauga decided early. and also comparison the results across the world. Yet we didn ' t wish to function. with simply any type of school, so we went through a very thorough selection process. entailing data accumulated from Stop our as well as other companions discussions. with our task advisory team. And also in the end we worked with two websites. and also three schools and also the first location was Hillside Public Institution,. located in Ward 2 of Mississauga.Next slide, please. The various other 2 colleges were situated . on the very same street as each other a PSB institution. and also a different feeling. Catholic area school board a couple. as well as a really varied community of newcomers. Next slide, please. Beginning in January of 2022, city team. and also guardians of youngsters at the college, institution board, trustees as well as superintendents. and neighborhood senior high school trainees and city team functioned with these groups. to prepare just how the pilot would be implemented. in this community.We also dealt with team to ensure. that the bus students could still securely reach school. Next slide. And also I just truly intended to highlight. that the Peel Area Institution operated in this project past simply accepting have your schools. join the pilot task. Yes.

Staff, students and also family members. Thank you. Role in it. Teachers and other school team. provided instructions for the task with the task consultatory boards. that we set up at each school, including pointers. like supplying afterschool treats at the Brian Fleming slide. trust food insecurity because community.Teachers also led their courses. to work as ambassadors for the task Feeding your collection, advertise energetic transportation. as well as strategy activities for their peers. Support team and also administrators. And they additionally helped strategy. At the end of the day, the city provided the funding and the general. Following slide. In addition. to providing an opportunity for city staff and institution board stakeholders. to collaborate, the pilot additionally had some rather outstanding outcomes. as it associates with school travel. So across both sites, it was found that college roads. were effective at raising active school traveling for college personnel. and additionally decreasing for college trips based upon surveys. that were performed in both.It was also reliable development to boost awareness of energetic school travel. as a choice as it disrupted the routines. as well as created an opportunity for reflection. And after the pilot was full, public assistance for the concept enhanced. to a majority remaining in support of indeed contrasted to the various other way around in the past. Next slide, please. We also thought. It wasn ' t all concerning the active. transport piece, however nevertheless. it was a fantastic chance for trainees to reach experience something novel . pertaining to their travel setting and to mirror on their typical travel. regimens. Next slide, please. So right here ' s a quick snapshot.

of several of our data. The this is a school STS pilot job yet this likewise is a video that ' s going to be terrific for us. District School Board. What exactly is an institution st. as well as how does it function? Catholic area institution board a pair. Across both websites, it was discovered that school roads.At Hill specifically, we saw an extremely dramatic reduction in the variety of colleges around the college site, specifically around the morning decrease off. And also this isn'' t. simply before the school. It was down over 9% before the institution accounts. for the more comprehensive college neighborhood as well. And also at the Fleming website, we likewise saw a 10% decline. the number of vehicles in the mid-day. So not as significant, yet still outstanding. results at both of the websites. We saw a 41% increase. in active transportation. Which'' s not simply amongst. the pupils themselves, however all individuals in the community. who we saw strolling, riding their bikes, pushing infant strollers and points like that. Next slide. There were additionally some terrific outcomes around. 19 school traveling. Into this institution year. Next slide, please. So for this slides where you need to click. through to bring up the images,. I put in some computer animations there. Wall surface Street Road ' s pilot has ended up. Yet that doesn ' t mean that we ' re done. dealing with schools.Eight institutions each year are invited.

to get involved in this, the institution strolling program, which is a yearly program. that ' s been running since 2008. And this program gives. a celebratory launch occasion to commemorate trainees and also households. who walk or roll to school. It also supplies instructional activities. led by city staff and our partners. Resources for schools to advertise. active institution traveling in their neighborhoods. Locate routes. marking the courses for pupils strolling and notifying drivers. to expect pupils along those courses. It likewise consists of a safety and security walkabout. in the community with opportunities for personnel, pupils and also caregivers. to reveal their safety and security issues to the city personnel as it connects. to the child'' s course to institution. And some of you here I know have actually already been out. to some of these occasions in your ward. And I hope that you continue. to be entailed and also take part in advertising energetic transportation. Following slide, please. Currently it'' s time to think about the instance. We saw that. there is an active transport as well as lowers in automotive website traffic. during the pilot, in addition to area. building and relationship structure between the city area, school. As well as what can the Peel Area Institution Board do as a board to sustain. And that ' s it for me . If you simply want to go to my last slide,. Thank you very a lot. Thank you. Devlin, do we have any information. Thank you really a lot. I ' ve always looked at means to attempt to do this,. It ' s constantly excellent. Please'send your children to institution,. not to college. However when you'' re in your port discussion,. when you see that 60% of trainees. live within strolling range. I simply wanted for certification. Does your presentation. by meaning of strolling range align your plan for strolling distance in the USA through the chair? So these were the statistics pulled from. the trainee transport of your region.So it '

s just how they qualify,. whether students are eligible for bussing or not based on the distance. that they walk from institution. So that was where. I got that statistic from. Yet you'' re significantly for that. I simply keep in mind when I was a kid,. so be spots. I was simply asking yourself. if it had been taken into consideration that we have like join and also state, Hey, you'' re at 815 and we ' re going to this institution. and also you satisfy at this crossway. And I do remember Father Robert. Just the thought. I mean, I see bus stops and also I see. all these various signs up everywhere. And also I simply like teasing my work actually at one of the colleges. that we'' re dealing with this year, Thornwood Public School, they have. That'' s one of the teachers has arranged. Yeah, it ' s kind of along. I think it ' s really amazing and also

institutions. Thank you so a lot for that. Just you. This information exists. So I was such the trustee. with this wonderful project. It was being applied. So I obtain it. Congrats again. And also Replacement pleased to represent Ward 3 where among these pilots. is occurring as well as happening. Yet I was wondering if does it exist, you understand, pertaining to danger as well as the web traffic effect type of I presume my all including. inquiry is, was the board provided with any of this summary data or does it exist yet? So via the chair, I am mosting likely to exist to Mississauga General Board of Council later. this month and we create a record for that, including appendices. that actually breaks down the data. I'' ll more than happy to share that with the board also,. if there'' s passion in doing that.But yeah,

breaks it down. So I just offered type of a high level. recap today, yet yep. Yes, definitely. Well, exists any indication from Ronald is asking. Thank you. Good to see you. And also Laura, you know, as she discussed,. Hill is among the institutions that was part. of the research which was joined. And also it was truly terrific to see all. the lowered website traffic as well as everyone engaged. I have however,. you recognize, individuals that were concerned about it the most were. the actual individuals on the street.And I know they ' ve asked me lot of times, this is a pilot,. is this going to be permanent? And I simply want to ensure. that we mention that state. If it'' s simply that was great. It was a pilot. Certain. So right currently, as I discussed,. there was a great deal of human team sources, time. Prior to we move this. As well as that could be that city. however we put on'' t have any type of particular plans or details plans. to make the pilot permanent. I especially intend to arrange with. What you'' re seeing there might be record. you'' ll be supplying the college boards with web traffic security or. Yes, so with the chair. I'' m uncertain what the very best method of sharing. the report would be, and also I'' m open to discussion. Thank you very much. It was a great while. as well as I understand that the school community and the parents really appreciated. actually venturing out there strolling. So thank you. and also thanks for your support too. Not a problem. Allow'' s see another concern. that each location, etc, just just including in resolving,. because I would quite appreciate any cost effect evaluation. that could be shown the board. That would certainly be terrific. Thanks. Any type of even more concerns? Yeah. Chair Benjamin, go on. Thanks. I have no doubt. I just intended to thank you, Laura.And and also I understand personally. what you are experiencing as well as for you to actually take the time out. to offer this delegation. I actually appreciate that. Thank you. Trustee. McDonald is referring to my little girl had surgery today,. We simply got home from that. She'' s fine. Oh, I didn ' t know that. that this will be really successful in the area. and also we will all collaborate. Thanks quite. The trustees do intend to obtain. Is it for a fee? Thank you. I believe you desire to. probably refer it to the director so that we can collaborate. We will certainly report this to the director and others. Thank you. Now we have one even more delegation. that is asking for authorities. One, three. We have tried out the miracle significant city. of Mississauga over there, obtain an energetic. and also sustainable college transportation. So, Caroline, you have the floor.Thank you.

So in this town I expanded up in Branson. and also now a transport organizer for the city of Branson. aids the volunteer program and the peace arts opportunity. Today I am speaking in support of tranquility. to approve the PSP, adopt an active, sustainable institution. transportation charter. The usage of the PSP can convert. its dedications to take a trip, which is healthy and balanced, sustainable and also equitable.So for couples

besides tranquility, access,. really feel risk-free and also active paths. School Board are included many stakeholders in the area. to wish to get children relocating sustainably, doing advocacy groups in college. federal governments, the local government as well as most notably. the federal government college board itself. Next slide. So every one of our subscriptions and activity of individuals have risk-free environment. in which the bulk of our youngsters and youth frequently make use of active. as well as lasting institution transportation. Where is a system to impose the regulation? This consists of active transportation. of simply human powered applications like walking, school. bussing as well as public education. That'' s life. Regrettably, that vision isn'' t reality. and also the circumstance is becoming worse. So this information was taken. from the Transportation Tomorrow survey. You can see that the varieties of youngsters. walking have been rather steadily given that the eighties. When it comes to the red line. So prior to over. half the pupils below stroll to college. Currently that decrease has actually been replaced by youngsters being driven. by the moms and dads stood for in blue before. Only one in 10 suits. are being driven to institution as well as I want their pupils. to visit institution. It. You can'' t allow these trends continue. I can talk to City Hall about the requirement to reduce congestion and emissions,. Someone who uses it, a city with an appeal allure PSP should care aboutAround It is a silly question many initiatives. That being stated, this community. need to most likely recognize a couple of key benefits. I thought the very first all energetic website traffic concern. is connected to institution efficiency and can obtain youngsters. better prices later.So this study was done by Dr. Hillman, as there is a difference.

between pupils who passed prior to an examination. and also those that picked up the test, the actor who clearly has more. mind task. There are other sites linking. physical activity and an active school for you to enhance trainee efficiency. that are cognitive feature. Boosted focus spans. By encouraging students to stroll to institution,. we permit them to be their finest selves within this little environment,. all ruining of its exceptional. Now think of it in this way. Some psychological wellness students had an especially difficult time. as a result of pandemic, and also we are currently going through. a psychological wellness dilemma. Centers. Numerous of us grownups included,. however the quote unquote pandemic during lockdown. to leave ourselves an anxiety and anxiety.And these benefits are backed by research. strolling this looked at

the direct exposure to the outdoors has concrete advantages. for student mental health, including lowering stress and also stress and anxiety while combating anxiety. and increasing happiness. If it won ' t be all-natural. for the mental health of the academy as a device and to be that climate. So security is a key facet of investing, though several moms and dads are frightened. of complete stranger danger, among the biggest dangers for pupils. going to college is just other vehicles. We understand that in our school. is attempting to grab and also hand over time. It ' s been driven. And studies have actually shown that this web traffic is come with. by dangerous driving behavior. Assistance is additionally minimized, . as if you see people far from to stroll. Moreover,. the biking procedure is simply as crucial on the left side,. as well as we can see if school can ' t be discharged. As well as it was thought that was showing. difficult.On the left is where all the youngsters live,. however, for them

to accessibility to start school, they have to cross the road in which the key purpose. do 80 kilometers per hour. If we include it into the PSP mandate,. we can make sure that schools like this are a lot more strong. and well incorporated into those activities. You need to recognize that Americans. wear ' t misery regarding Planet,. Isn ' t rides developed for the convenience. In some cases in kindergarten areas,. the level of teens within the air.So having youngsters to that accident by supporting a trainee can make certain that levels of carbon go down. to ensure that pupils are impacted by the threats of lorries. that loosened exhausts that they produced. Really? Exceptional. I think there'' s a huge item. of research study reveals that if you take immigrants,. individuals of lower earnings and also racialized students are more most likely. to stroll to college, that their folks are doing something much more vulnerable to violence. and also lack of sources that both students and driven students are obtaining provided. taking a look at pupils as a whole.We can see

that a lot of our transportation. sources most likely to school bussing, which is only readily available. to a quarter of all students, or somewhat much less than 75% of the trainee. body. Student body determining how. they'' re mosting likely to access their education and learning. That'' s a school recently repaved. the parking area and also we can see that. That'' s right.You need to maintain. with maintenance upkeep. However there were some clear chances. that were missed. We have the car park. as a safeguarded from the aspects. So kids after their course. may see that the backs are all damp, they have to cross big crosswalks. And most significantly, we see that. there wasn'' t a patch produced from this bus stop to the college'' s front entryway. By by buying a city and also developing a mandate for market,. we can ensure that when we plan for these fixings, we integrate that right into the formula to make sure that for an active school preservation. father can come in.So throughout every one of Ontario, several,. numerous college boards have actually embraced Charter from had stated, Father,. you ought to call a few at the port that we utilize part. as a stepping stone for greater modification. Yet they'' re non-binding, which suggests that institutions can set the rate. at which that transform occurs. Following slide. So the Waterloo region. has had terrific success, in their words, although much of their information. has actually been endangered by the institution closures. during the pandemic. One institution dropped their engagement. by 20% in 6 months, making use of a range of visible academic. as well as plan procedures. Overall, they proceeded. with their programs to the high ratio. I do not assume this procedures outside all students disrespects. They found that districts. that are affordable in colleges that were participated in school. travel planning procedures versus colleges that did as per. the yearly traveling mode study, they functioned by sharing sources. as well as materials as well as counting on area companions. grants and specific funds to create a myriad of their programs. in decline.And finally,

. we had currently been doing this job without a clear required to do so. All these are terrific efforts. To make sure that includes objects. to stop our website, to refer to transport,. not just in terms of institution bussing, yet additionally with walking and biking. to help advertise the college. Various other sound that we create use. that existed as well as significantly join the institution pilot. that were just spoken about. They distribute. Walkman products on social media.They contribute

to an increase. in incomes and also classroom, and also they likewise participate with this. bike flight. All of these are initiatives. without clear required in the institution board, school circuit, totally. devoted to its efforts, leading staff, instructors as well as pupils. to open up dispute with these individuals. So I'' m asking you, we'' ve composed in as a city charter,. sent to the board. You can utilize this exact phrasing. or utilize this charter as you desire. Ultimately, we thought the PSB to begin. their training on the day to campaign and also boost their support. for energetic pupil travel with the charter living so they can put agreements. for the advantage of all students next time. As well as if you drive up and down and also over to the trustees. Excuse me, Chairman. Yes, thank you. that I'' m a participant of the board and also I'' d like to put an activity on the flooring. that this report is referred to the director,. and also that information comes back is reported back to the Board. on the ability of embracing the Active and Sustainable School. Thank you. I know de Blasio,. you have some questions.Yes.

Which is that I was wishing to draft. a motion to set a state administration as well as policy for testimonial. prior to mosting likely to the director. Would certainly that make even more sense in this lecture? The motion is on the table. from Trustee MacDonald. Trustee Donald. Do you consider what Trustee ls. is stating to be within both year motion that that. You would certainly be content. To go right into governance as well as plan? Yeah, that'' s fine. The trustee fixes moving to b b c of governance. on the policy described administration. All the committee,. a trustee enables us to do that so we have a law as well as a set. Thank you. Any various other explanations. The Trustee Davis is just a crazy observation. When I went to institution,. which was way lengthy earlier, I wear'' t recall it being any kind of, simply like,. oh, it needs to be cared for. This problem is warranted. So then having these in the colleges. is what is creating a great deal of the confusion.I mean, we are

making it much easier. for moms and dads to drive their youngsters to institution. that we have actually quit doing that. Yet the license plate. really starts to decrease. Oh, yes, it does. So that is just one of the important things that can in fact push. for even more individuals to drive to college. Oh, look, pay attention. Prices were created. since there was a great deal of conditioning occurring around schools. As opposed to taking care of that congestion. by lowering the amount of you made it less complicated for people. As well as regrettably, right now, we are pushing for even more as well as much more. simply roads and also schools. I would certainly attempt to find out. who'' s producing this policy to have this as well as roadways as well as it'appears like. it ' s originating from the school board. It ' s all built right into the city of relationship with our preparation division. This isn'' t the instance. Please allow me recognize. I ' ll let the individual at the institution, at. To show our households from generationally sustained high levels of earnings. or modest degrees of earnings are have a lot more energy. They have a much more, you understand,. tackle life mindset than individuals that are either racialized or by course or, you recognize, or, you recognize, lower revenue, don'' t have it, are not able to. you know, they'' re their parents wear ' t have that history of interest of of everyday life.Has there

been, you understand, particular concerns to ask about how to obtain people that,. you recognize, from from like their, you understand, lower. earnings, racialized areas? Since we certainly people. who are medical professionals and also like investors and also their family probably wear'' t requirement. the same sort of assistance that someone who would certainly like their, you understand,. their family members let'' s a supermarket or, you know, perhaps a. truck motorist would certainly assume, you understand, so there'' s a selection of sources. when it comes to school travel planning and student techniques to shipment. The OAS is Ontario College Traveling Group. They supply resources. outreach to market some uses. However having claimed the research. of this particular point, T.J. reveals at least even more probability from these. marginalized areas walk to school as you can. To my very own experiences,. my moms and dads are refugees. I utilized to be reduced income as a child. We didn'' t have caucus.Yeah, we did have an auto. My father was one can use it initially. since he was a runner and my mama would follow with it without left me as well as my relatives. that all stayed in the exact same residence having a hard time to get to institution. Right. So simply due to the absence of ways,. we did it. I mean, it was great. I put on'' t want to be for I was extremely silent,. two schools we strolled in components of the day. So it'' s a rather terrific experience. for me at the very least. And also this isn'' t. just in front of the school. 19 institution travel. And also I simply love choosing on my job really at one of the schools. I ' ll allow the person at the institution, at. The OAS is Ontario College Travel Group.But that is to say there is an understanding in different societies that is given what the school. But right now we can see a growing number of lately there is this press to drive the society, stating that to offer a parent to their kids to school because of the high levels of traffic around institutions, you have to drive your youngsters to school.There is that type of social press for every person to to simply. Simply really feel to the next. Thank you, Chair, and to you. Just a number of comments. I assume, you recognize, I assume this is a wonderful initiative, yet additionally we recognize that due to the fact that you'' re right, it can additionally be fantastic and offer their function as well as the kids that do get your company college, some of them do originate from from a methods away.And I believe that, you understand, the moms and dads that do have those concerns, those issues stand as well as they must be, you understand, equally as equally is there to attempt again in one particular question I had concerning the is a city charter you had a fantastic instance of that school that was constructed in a broadband areas, high website traffic location, tough to accessibility every one of that. I assume we have a few of these across the PTSD. Are you able to clarify it or just how the city deals with those circumstances where schools are really challenging to reach throughout high website traffic, high rate zones? Yes.So it'' s something to check. So tiny traveling preparation process or that procedure is something that many schools take as soon as they get these requireds is source extensive and also it'' s. usually an action even more down the line. Yet basically they'' re typically coordinator like one. that exists that we were at all over. Where they look over the institution,. they see what barriers are barriers there are to obtaining trainees. to look institutions and after that overcome that so that actually rates. to simply walking to school.So when you

have for example. that institution that exists on safety, generally we would question certain that colleges like that. are placed in such precarious areas. Once those institutions do take place,. our schools are developed. We have to locate means around that, right? So whether that be making it throughout. as well as obtaining even more school going across guards, developing various programs in position, dealing with signal timings, are having. good leading pedestrian periods where pupils have the ability to cross in the past. vehicle drivers have the ability to move.Those are all suggests with which. we can attend to the problem, that being so there needs to be some kind of location. for that procedure to launch. Richard, thank you extremely much. I expect my only other concern. Are we able to have that information. I suggest, I feel like. It ' s certainly yeah, I think. And also just talking to that resource. naturally I can ' t force you to make that I stated pressure to include. what ' s because charter.You obtained to select on your own.

what is practical. That you understand that ' s suitable. Any kind of more explanations from the preface claiming thank you, Terry, for the discussion? Thank you, justice. as well as delegations that 6.4 but it is for the city of London where there are lawful neighborhood concerns. relating to the board'' s strategic strategy. This is also a discussion that is Mr. Ward alone. Oh, thank you. Great. Yes, Mr. Rogerson. Thanks, Mr. Excellent looking. Thank you for your discussion. Thank you quite. Obtain in the chair. Excellent. And also everyone. The question asked below is. if the board is devoted to this tactical strategy as well as this is this is very worrying to the area. As well as because we'' ll have to go back to some of the important things that took place. and also why we are where we are,

where we are.I ' ll have to take you back. to a current development right here where the community seen in horror. as the chair of the board was deliberately misinforming the target market. when he appeared on the last episode of The Off the Program,. which aired on February two, 2017. The episode of that agenda was. if the panel board was ready to satisfy. The chair was engaged. personally in revisionist background, and also I believed that was really, very upsetting for the neighborhood to view. As well as this has led us to ask him. this question.As a lot as the majority of us have mentioned. that we desire to work with the board, however when it when it runs. in a setting of transparency. and also not be taken part in revisionist history, oh, go on and also simply bring the participants of the committee as well as the board. to several of the points that took place. If some of you did not watch it, the first question that was asked,. if they chose, why was the college board. taking all the acid provided by the chair was that was insincere. and also misinforming at ideal. The college board was not taken control of. because of the criminal case. That was vice versa. The board was taken control of because of anti-black. bigotry as well as the rejection of the board to mediate. We have not forgotten all of this. This that'' s occurred, and it'' s crucial. Olin Hopkins This report stated. there was no expect arbitration and also because of this the minister was compelled. to take taken over the wall. We have not neglected that.The other

concerns pertaining to the 2nd inquiry that was asked,. if the chair was in support of the preacher taking the vow,. he said he brought the the movement that the June 17 activity. the chair was talking about was performative at finest. due to the fact that Bruce Rodriguez was already in Pil taking over the school board on the 20th,. and there was no method feasible for the movement to have actually been to the rhyme. because it took months to obtain Mr. Rodrigues to be the supervisor of film.So that particular point was a lie. The motion by the chair. was not responsible for the priest taking control of of the board. Mr. Olin Hodgkinson ' s record. Yes, my evaluation. Can I interrupt you, please? We are discussing the calculated strategy,. and also I wear ' t I wear'' t see any kind of mention of the calculated strategy that I will certainly provide to us. And I will certainly I will certainly be talking with Ms.

Sorry about that. May I discuss to you. exactly how this is concerned to disperse? You understand that you have just 10 mins. Well, you have actually interrupted me. You didn'' t talk to me. And I wish I can come back my time. You disrupted me. I was on my means. I didn'' t recognize'you. gents. It ' s okay. Thank you. Okay. So currently that means.

I ' ll have eight more minutes in total.So how this is worried. to the critical strategy? Part of the calculated plan itself. is recognizing Islamaphobia, the existence of Islamophobia. in the school board, and 2 black pressures in all of the plans. that'' s brought us to this place. So when the chair claims openly. that he does not enable certain facts as we understand them to be, he is basically. versus the current tactical strategy. As well as if I may, he was at a certain. important concern relating to the diversity of instructors. in school board.And he said

when he was asked. the question, it is it holds true that 80% of the pupil body is in white in gas college,. yet 70% of the teachers are. There. was no somebody else that was there, Mr. Giovanni claimed. Plainly, anti-black racism as well as Islamophobia. does not alter the result for pupils. The individuals in Peel are concentrated on the wrong. points and also the surface diversity. Adjustment the top qualities by leading to the caskets are failing youngsters. and also is not changing.Changing that the instructors are. does not change the mathematics institution. Let me inform you how that remains in opposition. to the current trajectory of the board. When the Chair was asked. concerning the statement made by Mr. Giovanni, he said clearly,. I absolutely agree with Jamal that we require to educate our instructors,. bring individuals with each other. However the concern asked. was if 80% of the trainee body isn'' t quite at, 70% of the teachers are. And also Jamil Giovanni seized the day. to make inflammatory statements that have not. nothing to do with the board.This is a core aspect of the present critical. direction, direction of the board. So this is the link. I'' m attempting to make here. If the chair of the board goes up. As soon as once more, I assume you ' re going away. I ' m simply delighted and perhaps, possibly one or two factors. what is occurring at the board degree or I don'' t see any type of connection keeping that. So component of the strategic plan,. as I pointed to, was, one, acknowledging that Islamophobia exists in simply a college. board that'' s embedded in the report. anti-Black bigotry. technique belongs to the strategic plan recognizing equality as well as justness. And also in the hiring of policy, 90. is component of the strategic plan. So if the Chair protests this, it suggests that the tactical plan itself is on unsteady ground at best.So I am giving

you element of the tactical plan,. the present straight trajectory of the war. And also if the Chair publicly says. that he'' s against just how we educate us or look like the structure. Basically he'' s. saying he ' s versus this calculated strategy. Allow ' s not go to the chairman because he'' s not the personIndividual We would such as to listen to something extra. from you on the plan as well as not about what. the chair has actually been doing. Well,. this is the reason why it is important.The chair up here and

the program. As the speaker for the board. So if he states something, everybody listens. He'' s representing the board. He did not show up on the program. On his very own acknowledgment,. he appeared to protect the board, to provide to Ontarians. the plans of the board. And also he concurred with this declarations. that I have simply read that was stated prior to no to prohibiting. And because of that,. it would certainly be a reasonable assumption to agree that the Chair himself. is against the present strategic strategy. All of this are linked. So if you'' re informing me. what is the connection below? I discussed Islamophobia strategy. I discussed the Center for Indigenous. Quality and also Land Based Knowing. I spoke about Regulation 16. and anti-racism plans. These are parts of the Board'' s. critical strategy. If the Chair claims he is not in assistance. of things that pose the inquiry where the board is. on this matter, that is the connection. Thanks. So I still have time left. Then you have to provide me 3 mins left. Thank you. So this is concerning. to members of our community, because when you look. at the structure of allure, these declarations made. by the chair violates the supervisors are not in accordance with the present. trajectory of the board as well as itself.It ' s worrying.'to participants of our community as well as we will well value it. if the board can make clear points, if the Board is that dedicated. to the critical plan as well as if the Chair can pull back. those declarations, it is feasible. If our committee has to collaborate. collaboratively. We have to be honest,. we have to be clear. We can not be participate in revisionist history. since every one of this are misguiding. As well as I proceed. I say polysyllabic, which is this this plan to develop a procedure. that is fair and fair, anti-racist, anti, oppressive, transparent. and also actively liable. These are component of the calculated strategy to have educators based upon the demographics so that pupils can see themselves. amongst the educators. However the costs against that. in the record, the reverse. this becomes part of the testimonial, identified an absence of market diversity. among school team as well as underrepresentation. This is component of what J.M. was asked that the chair said. He concurred, as well as he'' s against this part. the value of policy, 90 of which the board must adhere to.Research has

shown that African,. Caribbean, black and also native trainees attain better educational end results. and also have better educational experiences when they have educators that recognize the infection up in tension as well as appearance excuse me, intersection, identities. as well as lived experience. Every one of this were things. that the chair said he was versus. It is essential. if our neighborhood must progress, if we must run. on a clear platform that the chair withdraws. If we'' re all still dedicated. See, none of this is up here. Excited to get this discussion. for details. All right, it'' s simply me layout. I ' m attempting to concern. So what was your hand up looking? Please go on. Ms. Cassie MacDonald. Will certainly the board. be replying to the delegation? Or is it when you say invoices? Due to the fact that typically, when individuals. I ' d like to ask Ms. Thank you. Through you, Madam Chair. for the trustees to pick. One is the invoice,. the receipt, presentation, the details refer the presentation to one more. Board for Action or Info. Refer the discussion to the Director. of Education or designate to comply with up with the delegate by designate personnel. or for asked for info. Report from staff. Exist at the subsequent conference. Every one of those activities calls for. a formal recommendation and also a majority, an official activity as well as a bulk ballot. of the board participants. So count on on your own due to the fact that would be good.I wants to place a motion on the flooring. to receive this delegation. Thank you. All in favor of doing to say that this field is running an on the internet sector. So this fact. What are you seeing on the table? And also we require a second for this. Okay. I can'' t. Yeah. I mean, not offering. Do we know they'' re looking in drama? There'' s no action. I ' m a little overwhelmed. I don ' t understand the four choices given,. Don'' t respond. I ' m really puzzled. I think it would certainly be reasonable to refer this to the director as well as and provide individuals the chance . Thank you. This is you understand,. it'' ll be sent out to the director and also there ' s just a follow up

your chair.I mean my complication comes. I listen to the delegation. I assumed it was more of a remark,. but I didn'' t reach your question either. Thank you for providing that. Might you please allow us understand. simply so we have a clear inquiry existing to the director,. what is the inquiry we'' re asking the concern. The property of the inquiry pertains to the existing. critical direction of the board. Because the permission of the Chair remained in resistance to the present calculated. directive of the Board, and I listed some of the composition. of the as plan of the Board. The inquiry is, is the Board. devoted to the present calculated plan in the leader? And the Chair of the Board made remarks. that contrast the present critical plan of the Board. in this clarification, since the area is puzzled,. because the board is doing something and also the chair. is doing something different, or he'' s saying something different. concerning it, do you think you'' re right? So I think that they ought to be looking. for a clarification. And the inquiry is directly, is the board still committed. to that regulation that you think much? Thank you, Mr.Little.

So keeping that, we'' ve come to the end of our delegations. for this night. And also before I move on to product number. seven that the team record, I request all the presenters to please leave this room because they will certainly be going to. on the agenda. Thanks. Thank you. Thanks. Thanks, everyone. And also thanks. to all the various other speakers to. It'' s still there. So do you wish to know why? All right, allow'' s take place to a little item number 7. That is decibels. So 7.1,. Thank you. With Madam Chair. has actually been based out of budgeting as well as budgeting greenwashing. The Facility for Indigenous Quality.

to ensure that all of us prepare to function. Thanks. Thank you. I see Trustee Alex O simply to promote you. Of all, I desire to say. this week to you regarding some of the inquiries. that you ' re obtaining from the neighborhood. And also I ' m really happy to both of you. for giving me that time to have that conversation. But once again, for for everything. you ' re doing to see to it that we ' re doing this best for our pupils. and also preparing to go all out. So I do have some concerns. I put on ' t believe there will be a surprise. this week, however over some of them already. Yet I was here today in the upgrade that that going forward there will be plans. for neighborhood consultation.I was curious what consultation,. if any type of, has actually happened to this point, if there ' s been discussions. with the neighborhood or with teachers regarding this change in practice,. identifying that now, the report that we ' ve listened to tonight is purely. talking around this present school year, yet that we are looking in advance. to just how to take care of for the years in advance. So I was questioning if there has actually been any assessment at this moment. or if that ' s something that will certainly begin based on what we ' re seeing. from this present school year.Thank you for the question. with your chair. So we have been paying attention. really plainly, clearly available to all our various stakeholders. Therefore that is the way that we'' ve been. able to receive comments directly on this and also we. will proceed to do so as we relocate forward. Our next steps are going to be therefore with paying attention to those voices. that we are currently, as you just stated, we are going to use that'to educate. what our plans are for next year.So presently the plan is one. for this current institution year.

Therefore it ' s like having that feedback. for our next. Thank you. One of the questions that can come back. Simply for grade nine, offered that students who are going to quality. to have some type of assessment, that being the formal invitation. to quality 11. And also the worry.

that I ' ve been returning from moms and dads is that those excellent 11 marks. start to count for secondary applications. So they ' re anxious about what. that looks like in terms of preparation as they are going into their later . years of senior high school and afterwards whatever their course may seek after high college. likewise. To ensure that is just one of the worries,. especially back my way. Is there anything that we can that so this is going to sound like procedures. 11 or a quality 12 year after? We are really sorry concerning that.So in terms of honesty, really extensively, so in terms of all assessments, the assessments that pupils take. in the analyses that they ' re mosting likely to be involved in. at the end of that term. So in regards to. and also the semiotics issue right here, so in terms of saying that you ' re going. to prepare pupils for next year. No, the focus gets on preparing. for the existing year that we are in. And thus, the different abilities. That ' s not one piece. in regards to the next component where you ' re not talking. about the analyses or whether because of the power that they ' re

able'. to locate success, the abilities or the items that are being developed. over the last leg of the training course as well as the possibility for them. to be able to demonstrate that or what their teachers are functioning in the direction of. on that particular present college year. The concentrate on quality time. as well as and making sure once again as I mentioned that all the paths stand for the. because that ' s what we ' ve done after the college year for 3 910. Every one of the pupils that are in those programs require to have the opportunity. to be able to find success.And so by concentrating on qualities 9 and also 10. and offering those chances to have several methods to demonstrate. That ' s the reason. That ' s. why we concluded terrific. As well as I take those factors. I believe so. So I ' m clear, your assumption. would certainly be that in grade 11, after that their educators would be assisting to prepare. for exactly how to take an examination additionally. To make sure that ' s. that ' s the expectation? That ' s appropriate. So for all training courses, the goal is to aid students similar to this. Right.'So because of that, the possibility to create the abilities. for whatever that layout is mosting likely to be is one that

need to be embedded. from the extremely beginning'as well as after that scaffolded throughout in this way. to trainees. Once more, it ' s not, oh, incidentally, you ' re mosting likely to have this particular kind of assessment. and you ' ve never been revealed to it. That is previous. Yeah. Yeah. As well as I think that ' s a that ' s an asset. However something that I believe about is,. obviously, I believe we possibly all went with examinations with in senior high school. and they were stressful.And among the problems. that I ' m hearing from moms and dads as well as additionally from teachers. is the worry that we are there were waiting till grade 11. for where that type of that higher tension,. Also to prepare for the pressure. The problem that I ' m hearing back. just how much my phone has simply been going off, yet they ' re fretted. is that we ' re not helping our trainees start to create that skill established around. how to take care of pressure, exactly how to you just how to prepare for this kind. of high stress scenario till later. As well as so what they would certainly be looking for. we ' ve had these last few years, it ' s it ' s so turbulent for everyone as well as a substantial. obstacle for everyone in education and learning. As well as I ' m hearing from moms and dads that have'. college student that remain in college. Therefore they ' re acing tests. for the very first time, yet they additionally have younger students. who are still students with us here, PTSD. As well as'what they ' re telling me.

is that their college student are entirely unprepared for exams. They ' re they ' re,. you understand, listening to back from their youngsters. They wear ' t understand that. They wear ' t understand exactly how to proceed. As well as they just since they haven ' t. been exposed, they they ' re lost. of meeting back from parents now is that if we ' re doing. something different for PTSD, as well as I put on ' t wish to claim that we ' re the only ones. since I understand I recognize that there are five boards throughout the district. that are'doing something different with last analyses at this moment. to make sure that we ' re one of

them. Just so every person knows,. I understand it ' s additionally Ottawa, Carlton, Waterloo, and as well as ' s used made use of cohortsMates. I put on ' t have even more information on that due to the fact that they place ' t been able. Yet yet the issue is that that ' s five. four is at 76. Therefore that ' s regarding 7% of college boards and the pupils that attend them. who are being exposed differently to, you understand, just how these analyses. might look later. So they'worry that they'' re that their children. are not going to be prepared in the same method that trainees from the various other 71 boards. or students from outside Ontario, it looks like Canada will have'perhaps. a benefit that'our pupils don ' t have.I can ' t since we place ' t had the opportunity. to type of see the results of this. There ' s my strange little question. Have we. Have we seen any type of other territories. who have had this in method for some time. that may offer us some information? Or is this fine? Because we ' re doing this? The college year is a kind of something. that ' s on'test type of

almost everywhere. So I understand that was so long. You ' d like us to be able to ask. you still that still? Yeah. You. In terms of preparing pupils. One of things that we understand extremely clearly is that and it was apparent the pandemic had a significant effect on every person. in all elements of life throughout all fields of culture,. including'education and learning. Little did we understand that. Therefore by virtue of that'expertise. and the way in which we understand it has affected our trainees,. we thought it sensible to be able to enable them to change into secondary. is stressful in and of itself.So you require recommendation. and maybe just sharing that. They intended to make certain. that trainees are subjected to tension so that we . they can get ready for it for later. I assume we have more than sufficient possibility for students to be worried. without an added stress of needing to have. this one type of evaluation. The only way that students may be evaluated. as part of their demo of knowledge and abilities. For me, this year, well,. after 3 years thus, we

made that decision. conscious of our entering into high institution because we intended to make sure the greatest. chance of success for them. We acknowledge and also once more,. we ' re not claiming that exams are negative. We ' re not saying that. What you ' re claiming is that the action that we ' re taking for this year. coming out of the pandemic for this year, we wanted to make certain that our students. had the biggest possibility of success possible, the best opportunity . to be able to demonstrate their ideal selves in terms of expertise. as well as skills that they ' ve gotten entering into help a semester. or for a particular course.And so when you have a look at that as a background, that ' s. what ' s educated us of exactly how we decided that we wanted to continue. for this academic year. As I simply pointed out, in terms. of considering various sources of stress, I think there ' s many, various. other locations in which trainees can and have currently however located, once again, several different points. And for that, we require to address. That ' s not shed in this. I was affected all of that in as to why you made a decision to take the activity. We are below to make certain that you are successful. As well as that ' s. why we ' re taking the steps actions listen.That ' s why we ' re taking the steps actions be able to now see. based upon the decision that we have actually made. How is that reasonable? Once more, it ' s not, oh, by the means, you ' re going to have this specific type of analysis. And I assume that ' s a that ' s a great point. And also they simply due to the fact that they place ' t. been subjected, they they ' re shed. I recognize it ' s likewise Ottawa, Carlton, Waterloo, and as well as ' s used in cohortsAssociates. And that ' s. why we ' re taking the steps to listen.That ' s why we ' re taking the steps actions be able to now currently.Just how does that permitting us to be able to, once more, prepare them to be successful as they move on? Certainly not the current years in advance, yet additionally line up to be able to find a success They too have to find out different methods in which they'' re not going to have the ability to establish what a trainee recognizes, what a pupil doesn'' t know. So again, I would certainly picture most of us have to shift because of this. So we selected to do what we assumed was in the ideal passions of our pupils to see to it that they have the best likelihood for success, combined with, as was stated ahead of time, recognizing that in this atmosphere that we remain in the market, we understand that the effective and also the advantage that you'' ve been paid for all trainees because of the research is their support that to be able to exactly how it is that we'' re not mosting likely to be able to the teeth in a move forward basis in doing that we recognize there to that having several methods to set apart how students are involved and also exactly how pupils learn is to their advantage. And also by doing this, taking the program of action that we did, it enables that to be something that is mosting likely to have the ability to come forward.It is now a lot there since I provided you this substantial inquiry as well as that reaction was really, very useful. Thanks. To your point about making certain that we have the possibility to assess trainees in different means as well as ideally to much better mirror kind of the the various ways they may reveal that option that are the expertise that they ' re getting. I imply, if last evaluations are concerning 30% of the grade, as well as that indicates that the various other 70 %. I indicate, there would, of training course,. that students are able to share as well as to demonstrate their expertise. to throughout the term.But I take your factor. They have an issue concerning exactly how their trainees. As well as, you know, they ' ve expressed to me,. We desire to make certain that our children know. Very briefly, I ' m not going to claim. I'' m a job instructor, but I hear listen to. it'' s an amazing time.We ' ve all been through a lot right. around the world. But there are parents. who are extremely worried that their pupils are not obtaining the prep work. that they would certainly like them to have. And there ' s there are some individuals. who are wondering if this is going to drawback. their children. Once more, I put on ' t intend to belabor that factor, yet that is something that ' s coming back. And'they fret that our pupils below. charm are not going to be prepared the method that various other trainees throughout. the country are prepared. And, you know, offered that we do have an area here. as well as people with so lots of varied point of views, we want to hear that. and ensure that individuals are not.They ' re not that they ' re not worried about.

whether they'can have confidence in the job that we ' re doing. These obviously, this is'a board that ' s mosting likely to be billing the very best. we can ' t for a student. But that is a problem. that I'' m hearing back. So I don ' t want to stick on that. But the the exam routine,. we so when we checked out the calendar and and we were taking a look at it last week,. we approved following year'' s calendar. There ' s a constructed in exam week. for all the trainees in additional and also our parents of grade nine. and 10 trainees. This is just how this initial started. ahead to our interest. They all began calling in unwell. Why are my children playing computer game. They'' re telling me their examinations,. I put on'' t want to pitch that. we should remove those examination days since we require them. for the older students.But I ' m also learning through'teachers. that they need that time to be able to note the several cumulative tasks. that are can be found in. So a student who, rather than having final. examinations, might have some of the assignments. We have 12 projects due. At the same time, I can inform you, I'' ve spoken with trainees who are find. that to be a various kind of stress where they'' re still having to do. everything they can to reveal that they are recognizing the expertise perfectly.But I put on ' t recognize exactly how we type of integrate that to ensure. that we are supplying our pupils with the discovering time that they require, however not eliminating the capacity. for our educators to do whatever they need to do in terms. of the mark, in terms of training, administering various other tests. for the older students. However there is a real concern. There was 2 school weeks in the schedule year where grade 9. and also 10 pupils had nothing to do. As well as so I wear'' t understand just how we resolve that,. yet I would certainly put that as an inquiry. Perhaps we can comply with up, you recognize, recognizing that this academic year. already is what it is. Which'' s that ' s great. I imply, informing moms and dads that when they'' ve. gotten to out on this specific issue. But I think it'' s something. that we must recognize no matter what we'' re doing for the following institution. year or the year afterwards. This is something that people are having some sensations about.So so I'' m taking up regularly. I'' m so sorry, everybody. I simply want to ensure. I'' ve had every little thing below. I did mention. that I'' m hearing back from pupils who are finding a various level. of stress and anxiety about the variety of summative tasks. there. They'' re finding that to be a whole lot. As well as in the work globe,. I recognized I had this discussion keeping that happened. in 2014 to the work world.Of training course

, it'' s. going to give us a whole lot of things where, you understand, possibly we'' ll have a time with a great deal of tasks. at same time, we ' ll have a great deal to work with. However they are discovering that challenging. in a various means than examining and also resting down as well as writing. exam as well as demonstrating the expertise. So I did desire to put that believed on, so I should quit the floor. However one last thing. that I wanted to discuss, I'' m so sorry.I am listening to a whole lot from instructors that, you understand, have a lot of various training courses. where trainees would be assessed better if they, you know, for a dramatization class,. for instance, be giving us an illustration or writing a play or something like that,. something that'' s various. Yet after that I ' m hearing from various other educators. who are feeling that they'' re restricted by this change, and also what they would certainly like to do is be able. to have the expert discretion to assess their students. in a manner that makes the many feeling, what the course that they educated and also of what they are wishing. the pupils have the ability to show. So it'' s someone that, you know,. I spoke with a background teacher that favors to see that written examination because they wish to know. that the student can take a seat as well as make the debate. and share the evidence within that sort of. Layout. So this is this is the first. I'' ve had back from instructors. I'' ve provided you far way too many. Yes. From the parents. But, you know, as well as I do wish to state,. I can'' t once more, I can ' t also inform you. exactly how much my phone as well as email have actually been going nuts. for the last couple of weeks.And I really do value every person. that has actually made the effort to get to out to me. I do have moms and dads. I put on'' t assume they have that. If that'' s valuable at all,. then that'' s when that ' s ended up. Yet it ' s done. However there are a great deal of individuals. who have extremely solid feelings and they want to recognize. and also I recognize we ' re mosting likely to decide later on.

this school year.We ' d like to understand as quickly as feasible. what our plans are for the year proceeding, due to the fact that they want to use that. in their decision making regarding exactly how where the college,. their youngsters are going to institution. So I do need to pass on that. comments likewise. However once more, thanks a lot for constantly you'' ve spent hundreds. and being so indulgent. I know that we simply wish to do the very best. for every one of our pupils, especially after such a challenging time. right across the board. As well as as well as I'' m grateful for every person. that'' s taken a serious factor to consider.'Therefore I ' m so sorry, everybody. Molly, thanks a lot. I believe we require to press the residence. No, it'' s still here. I ' ll checked out the very same comments as my associate. attempted to call the superintendent.Logan.

Superintendent Hockey,. thank you a lot for i'm sorry. Affiliate Director. Excuse me, wrong day. However I will just be explicitly clear, just like my associate as well as trustee. possibly has had. I have had many constituents call me revealing. enormous concern that this policy and so much to make sure that they'' re going. to head to a various board ought to this policy fully applied. since of a couple of vital concerns.So I think.

I ' ll begin with a number of inquiries relating to the alternate. forms of assessment. I understand that those might include take projects, cognitive jobs. in class projects for does the Field Area School Board. presently have plan regulating making use of synthetic intelligence. to create natural content? We would certainly just how would certainly. we manage those cognitive assignments? Since we understand trainees can utilize. natural create natural material. utilizing software applications like conversation, TATP as well as how we recreate them precisely,. the concern for moms and dads is that it would unnaturally inflate our performance of our pupils. So via your. That'' s a really effective question. As well as I will certainly do my finest. to supply an answer for you that is clear. As long as the development of that came out in November of 2020 to the idea of quote unquote, turbulent innovation is not new. We, as a as an industry,. You all might recall existing Google any type of. Exactly. The notion of us being able to in an immediate. gather details and have the ability to ask somebody or something. You have to go back to your encyclopedias. You needed to go to the collection and rest down and go to the shelves. as well as undergo the heaps, and so on. Chat DVT. When you consider it. from the perspective of something that should not be feared. but possibly took a look at to be comprehended, to make sure that we are able to form our. our method in different ways is just how we are looking. at this technology currently.So we do not have a plan. that ' s existing that currently states as well as I know various other jurisdictions. in the United States for instance outright included. that nowadays is not enabled. We are not taking that stance. We are listening. We are discovering as well as we know his. incredible powers in terms of earnings, having the ability to place pumping in. and also having actually that come out. What that speaks to is the demand for us to do what we ' ve constantly done,. What would certainly be needed. in several of the different methods and also other amazing ways to educate, advise. and also be able to aid students beautiful. Find out much better, learn deeper.And we are paying attention to as well as finding out. from that to be able to change our technique so that we can not be looked. at as something that we ought to fear however really identify as a tool. to be able to better our brand. Thank you. Do you have a follow up? So to that note, I will certainly clarify my factor. I in fact have strategies to bring this to the educational program ultimately,. yet I have an evaluation currently occurring with the Administration and also Policy Board. It is my individual opinion that softwares. similar to this need to be consisted of in classrooms and also should assist pupils in future,. whether that'' s, you know, to develop brainstorming sessions. or produce suggestions, every one of the above. However that'' s simply an example. Software program such as college board and also others. have actually existed for numerous 8 years, over a 5 years better to a years. As well as I presume my worry. is that we'' re removing tests, which are an in-person, proctored means of examining and replacing that with.Other types

of assessment. that are quickly extra conveniently controlled without having the devices. in position to examine them. So I have a major issue there. In addition, I think that this plan might. I say this extremely gently might if I see this. I put on'' t assume this plan and it would certainly be hard. to have actually taken this to consideration. However with software programs that do create. organic web content, it does make use of that. And also inequality. in between trainees isn'' t equitable since those who can afford to pay. for software programs that are are extra tough. to discover by typical software. As well as it develops an imbalance. to those that can manage it. As well as I assume that without that structured. exam or appropriate test in position, trainees will certainly manipulate this, possibly. And after that my issue is,. without those offers in position, just how can we progress without them? So, Chair, I would certainly state, simply to clarify, we place'' t removed and also limited. Therefore exams, as we already understand,. explicitly mentioned, are available for trainees as a means for grade 11. or simply for this current college year. In terms of the alternate types. that I already discussed in the report. Those still supply viable methods for. students to show their knowledge.And I recognize. your factor is a legitimate on that test to have also supplied a legitimate method. in terms of a student to take a seat and have the ability to show in the right here. and now without the use of technology. such as conversation, and to be able to once again subvert the intent of the student leader. by demonstrating the knowledge instead of rely upon it. Yet in regards to all the other types,. the alternate kinds, they in fact likewise provide a possibility. for pupils to be able to demonstrate their expertise and also their understanding. and after that assess an issue that is not in that typical function. form of taking a seat and also doing an exam. So where we are presently for this college. year, with the restrictions. that we ' ve placed in place around grade 9 evaluations that have enabled those other different types. to find march prior to they reach allow pupils to be able to demonstrate. their finest selves with the means. that they ' ve had chance to show. throughout the training course of the semester.And then finally, in the final assessment,. if you ' re analyzing your I guess. my last factor would certainly just be, you'know, with. those types that we just wear ' t have. It sounds like we just don'' t have a policy or tool in place to find whether or not they utilize these softwares. And I fear that the trainees fantastic minds. the following year in advance of them.And the negative aspect. of not going via a process is that it ' s as structured'. and also not to belabor the point here, but it needs to parents and also pupils. can be found in and also call and also state, look, I sanctuary'' t done tests for 4 years. in a row and afterwards got the university. You recognize, a few of these. top scholastic universities worldwide are still at an excellent downside and really feel like they aren'' t affordable. or wear'' t recognize or to manage. I my only my only fear, I suppose, is that this could further make use of that. So thank you for that. Just as a factor of explanation,. Sorry that perhaps I misspoke. I expect what I'' m trying to claim is. their cognitive assignment is take hold, should that test be produced. by expert system that is undetected by current. Denmark would certainly be inflated.That ' s that ' s the sight. That'' s the current trustees daily. Simply to make clear that,. with the final valuations, it sounds as however. what you were conveying as well as that most of the tasks. that are final evaluations are taken in your home. and also there'' s a variety. So there are several that are in course. There likewise require that trainees research. I assume often it'' s just this notion. that just a test will be the sort of an assessment. that will certainly require a trainee to study. There are lots of various other analyses. that call for pupils to examine. as numerous various other assessments that are timed. There'' s numerous various other analyses. that have a target date. All of those things that I assume that people are concerned. just related to an examination. So I just wished to clarify that. As well as problem got a bit. Yes. The exams and we have a tendency to place. a certain worth on exams. There are various other forms of evaluation. that have pieces of what an exam brings. That additionally offers a chance. to establish up our youngsters for success.So I just intended to make clear that. Thank you. Which'' s your time. Thank you kindly. As well as yet absolutely value that these other projects. duplicate the skills you don'' t have. And is a typical test framework drudgery? Absolutely. Yes. Simply I just. you know, it'' s my understanding that if you shed that value, that in-person. Thank you. Thank you both extremely much. Thank you. I was just reviewing this package, so I do desire to touch on. You'' re amazing. Do you understand the telephone calls that I get. from the people that I get? I just intend to make sure. you are entailed instantly because you recognize, the calls that I did and if that'' s what you ' re getting split. with your phone calls, because I have actually not had one phone call on paper,. that'' s a numerous. I think I simply found out from our history. that'' s really similar to when we tried to do that,. Once again, it was, you know, yes, back in the day, like was terrific. I made use of to obtain a day off. people as well as I train people in person.That doesn ' t happen anymore. It'' s on the internet safety training. It ' s all online organization. All of it is online. And we postponed. Online. I discovered it, combated against it,. That'' s what life is. An additional component of what we'' re doing. And also if we put on'' t do it properly,. there are implications. I suggest, several of individuals I get, I have to overcome online safety training courses. so that they'' re doing it over and over and over once again because they'' re not used. to that learning format. As well as I'' m so afraid that that'' s. what we ' re doing to

people.I had my own child. Inform me, Papa, you'' re dealing with for, like 35 people in a classroom. in the secondary school degree. Do you understand that? 2 months earlier, while you were playing. for that a person on one. Now I'' m in the research study hall with 300 various other trainees. and no communication with the educator. Just how did that prepare me. of what I require to do currently? You definitely tossed me to the. wolves, which'' s for my it. So I just wish to ensure that we are doing the participation. and also we are keeping the. Yes, I desire college graduation rates up. I have some.But I additionally

require that that that link to,. Like, we'' re not just graduating in a world. There'' s no demand to slog any of that. I'' m a parent of a trainee. in high college in the PSP. We have great deals of children in PSP that I connect with as a result of my kids and also in my job over the program of university. It was extremely difficult for them. with tasks. The amount just really touched. on the quantity of tasks that belonged to completion of year. advancing jobs. It was much more stressful for them. that they were taking an examination. Not just that this year, however a few of them is taking an examination for the very first time. Again, I put on ' t want to belabor that factor, but that is something that ' s coming back. They'' re informing me their examinations,. As well as that'' s that ' s fine. Denmark would certainly be inflated.That ' s that ' s the sight. One more component of what we'' re doing.The quantity of speaking them down for getting ready for a test, it was so difficult for them. Currently, instead of learning with a 10% exam in an earlier year, which to them it'' s not so much.Right.

Yet they would need to find out just how to do it. However being available in at 10 late, can be found in at a later year, not recognizing exactly how to do it. It'' s a lot. Okay'. As well as I ' m talking from a trainees viewpoint. I ' ve obtained from students, the amount of mental wellness concerns it'' s caused. It ' s not worth it to claim leave it till grade 11. That'' s also much more anxiety for them, due to the fact that one right currently they can say, as well as I listened to pupils say, I feel it, I feel the exam wasn'' t worth that much. How to prepare for weeks. I get that you ' re attempting to say it ' s much less demanding for him, yet it'' s not. It ' s really not. As we ' ve seen during the COVID, there was no tests. I ' m like Greg in this team. Yeah,'I know. Due to the fact that my son remains in secondary school. There ' s no tests. However it was over. Yes. The fact that they had to be within and all of that exacerbated it.But the truth that they were online, they were all they might have done was research study. However still, it was way too much for them. Right. I actually assume that we actually require to check out what we'' re doing and also just how we established our kids up for future successes with this version. As a moms and dad, I'' m worried as well as I keep hearing it from moms and dads. Well, it'' s under the table. Well, I have actually heard one moms and dad claim they'' re delighted regarding this new model. I'' ve heard lots of moms and dads state they'' re not happy regarding this model. I is a parent and not delighted with this version as well as all that, you know, right here. Christy Bailey, next, we have this photo of you have got a couple of concerns, clearly. Yeah, sorry. Certainly, like I I'' m on with the comments, so I regret. But yep, I ' m as well as in I can simply promptly beginning this. I have ADHD. I have to manage like I'can ' t memorize things similarly most individuals do. I need to find out points by absorbing information and also expertise comes out.So I such as the suggestion of remembering my youth, my time in institution, of not having not needing to create a complete examination. But as an adult, I have issues that how are we mosting likely to ensure that our measurement of the child'' s. knowledge throughout the year? Makes it out of a year because exams are at completion of the year or commonly, you recognize, there'' s a middle. and afterwards a second one at the end. And the end really gives us a. As far as I recognize,. offers us a solid, much better measurement of what the kid or pupil has,. you recognize, what knowledge, knowledge they they'' ve obtained. Just how are we able to, you recognize, ensure that the expertise. you understand, gauging it, determining that that keep that of the. not of the expertise as as an example if my language is not going through that,. My other allow'' s see right here, you understand, what are the you know recognize this you knowUnderstand are there. Yeah, I'know.I ' m obtaining that because. Is there data? having to do a test, possibly a spoken test, which is what, you know,. what I was able to take advantage of at the end at the end of the year,. to see to it I recognized most and also the majority of what I discovered. throughout the year. But. Yeah. Let'' s see below as well as see. During your argumentation, you mentioned. that the teachers created techniques throughout the throughout the lockdown. What were those methods,. if you can share any of those? And also, you understand, simply profits,. my concern is, you understand, moms and dads are parents are nervous. I'' m concerned. regarding the attainment of information via determining an exam. Perhaps there can be a choice. to having a test that isn'' t high stress with more, you understand, more time to finish. simply something. You recognize, I recognize that'that ' s you understand,. that'' s not necessarily a question that ' s more policy.But, you know, and I ' m just. Yeah. Why why the change, I presume. And. How is this ultimately mosting likely to work? I think the question is, do you actually resolve. all the limitations that you so you mentioned the understanding. Just how do we understand that? Freedom on? So I wish to start by claiming that by having exams was not a guarantee. that a trainee is instantly mosting likely to you know, everything. that they found out in the course.Yeah.

So isolating that in the method that we have for. the current year has permitted us to concentrate on various other ways. to allow trainees to be able to show. what it is that the latter as well as it'' s for that precise reason. why we are motivating alternate kinds. since we understand similar to your own experience, pupils. all discover in the very same way. And also I'' m fairly. sure that if you were to believe back to the same programs. that you were referring to from your very own childhood,. you experience a variety of different forms of engagement leading up to. what was then.So possibly

that'' s one. format of a sit down composed examination. We understand that that ' s not the best means the research has demonstrated that. that ' s not the finest method all circumstances for trainees. to be able to show their understanding. It is A-grade as well as it can be powerful as well as it can be able to do that,. however it'' s not the method. And so by highlighting those other means,. we desire it to enhance the likelihood that students great deals of gain a reader chance to demonstrate. what it is that they have learned. To make sure that'' s the answer. The concern top for inquiry second,. We have high assumptions. those high assumptions. So due to the fact that he did not take a seat. and create it for me does not indicate I ' m now. lowering the assumption due to the fact that you'' ve now produced a great deal of work,. maybe a profile might because as he said, as an example,. it was a discussion that you were able to now demonstrate. your ABCs of what you review orally. Yeah, right. So the standard has actually not transformed. due to the fact that the method has actually changed.And so the alternative forms of test. once more give us a chance to give a pupil a chance. to show their best self. As opposed to what we do recognize occurs oftentimes. are the points that we referring to. Kid confiscate up. And also currently this is the only method. have I been able to demonstrate that? I don ' t understand. But is this the only method'for me to be able. to state that I recognize something? We ' re expanding that factor. Number 3, in terms of the deal to support you, any kind of information to sustain the changes.We do have information to support the changes.

The data that we had the ability to make use of. The data that we are able to draw upon,. nevertheless, coincides information that still over because once more, they are not mosting likely to go to the office. like you need to see this. We are still operating. with an academic system that was a little small,. great deals of messages from post World War Z. Okay. So keeping that being said as well as done,. the information that we have actually is conflicted because we have a lot of information that says,. you recognize what, this is an excellent way. This is the most effective method for us to be able to learn. because there are some students who demonstrated that they can do. quite possibly because as well as they go on to attain excellent,. fantastic English life. Yet we also have a whole lot of information. that claims, you recognize, what, have I been managed another opportunity. to demonstrate my ideal self? So I would certainly allow to. and when you do give several possibilities,. that'' s what pupils have the ability to grow as well as have the ability to now. have the ability to locate success.And, you understand

, success breeds success. And also they'' re able to currently go on to the following degree again,. have still not decreased the requirement, but been able to much better involve. and to be able to show. So the information exists to support the program of activity. that we have actually selected to consider this year. But it is not something. that you'' re going to ever before locate is all everybody is mosting likely to say any one thing,. similar to any type of various other decision that is ever produced anything that we do. It out of in the next concern technol on the innovation story strategies that were demonstrated. during the lockdown. So of course, I can because they were specified in the report,. so I'' ll simply repeat a few of them. So, as an example,. a few of those other means were that instructors were asking students. with meetings and conferences. So they'' re likewise sitting down as well as composing. They'' re able to have meetings,. associates. So their technique to be able. to verbalize your thoughts, to be able to capture. So once more,. media is having the ability to demonstrate. That was one example. Having trainees have the ability to do inquiries.Meaning that you have a particular subject. that the trainee has actually had the ability to possibility. that you possibly from a subset of the instructor. Being able to go deeper, they ' re having the ability to engage. in meaningful methods around the presentation,. around that particular subject. They consider that different elements. that the educators highlighted appear within what it is that they ' re going. deeper is another way that educators are able to improve their. analysis methods throughout the pandemic, due to the fact that you ' re unable to do it in that. conventional'face to deal with in-person way or as your typical setup yet. is the kind of test. And also I ' ll just give one more instance of that ahead of time,. before likewise being able to gather accurate. That ' s an example of a demo of the understanding. There were various other strategies. The pupils are still able to demonstrate their finest selves. that I ' ve pointed out that had the ability to be residence over the pandemic. because we were compelled to do so. And after that your last question,. why the adjustment? I specified that part already, but. I will state since we did wish to do what was best, knowing that. students are appearing of the pandemic as well as identifying the difficulty. that we ' re feeling and also making use of the extremely things . I simply mentioned, they were finding the techniques. Okay. Thank you very much. I am sure all of us value you recognize, we are after this,. this pandemic. Thank you so much. Thank you. Trustee Brad McDonald is. On the last section. Donald, are you there? Yes. Can you hear us? Yes, we can. Oh, thank you. Thanks. I'' ve been patiently paying attention. to all my fantastic trusty colleagues, you recognize,. bring around the exact same sort of points. Yet I assume I hope I won'' t replicate. a great deal of right stuff they'' re stating. However I believe it has actually to be claimed,. because I'' ve had moms and dads not simply call me before all this,. they'' re emailing me and saying, I'' m paying attention to what ' s occurring tonight. and also they'' re voicing their problem. I appreciate having this record. I wish we would certainly have had it. before the examination duration in January when the choice was made.So we can have had this discussion. rather than you have some comments, like some on the trustees,. comparable remarks. And after that I ' m mosting likely to ask. some really certain concerns. Grandparents and also have youngsters who'' ve gone. with the system and also after that university. So what I assume, you understand,. as some trustees and eloquently placed by, you know,. Trustee Bailey, we educate our youngsters. not to simply learn more about math and science.We prepare them for the next step. outside of secondary school and also for 50% of our are grads. And that usually. they most likely to post-secondary education and learning and also there is where they need to do the following kind of courses and also examination. And my child, that is now in second year. university while taking arts as well as the social scientific research, he had examinations that were 100% pass and fall short. And also when you put the stress and anxiety of that. in addition to all moms and dads as well as kids, our pupils are functioning. hard to pay $20,000 on the line for those 100% examinations. It makes it really tough. that instantly a student that'' s never ever had a test. or has actually had very little anxiety due to it. suddenly goes right into a stress cooker.And I assume it ' s actually vital that that we established our youngsters up for success. So I think it ' s extremely brief viewed. I ' ve spoken with my parents.'stating that I will certainly echo their comments that we eliminated. exams in quality 9 as well as ten. They need to start the process. because what happens in quality 11, the initial examination, that ' s the marks. that'they then make use of to visit college. Once more, one more stress factor therein. So if we begin the exams at nine. and also gradually job towards that and also you know, once more, bringing individual experience. with my youngest in the psychological health and going through all the kind of CBT, CBT kind of stuff, anxiety as well as taking care of anxiety. is the ideal method to do it.If you are worried of heights. or if you ' re afraid of something, you do the slow-moving exposure,. which CBT'belongs to, which ' s what the exam procedure is. in high college. Enable our kids to construct the confidence . and also strength of composing examinations so when they reach the stress. stove of money, money currently it ' s cash on the line. that somebody placed money to head to college,. they ' re able to deal with it.And till the colleges eliminate examinations, we

shouldn ' t be removing them. Which ' s my perspective. That ' s what parents are resembling in their discussions with me. I ' ve also spoke to educators. and also this is not we have no doubt. I put on ' t assume any trustee concerns. about analyses in how we can examine youngsters as well as students and find ways. to see how they recognize the topic. Which'' s the fantastic point. that, you recognize, educators do. And also that ' s, you recognize, we can alter that. and evaluate just how that functions. That'' s not what we ' re chatting about.We ' re discussing exams for trainees. And also I chatted to teachers, particularly I'' m a designer, stem have exams,. And also so we claim', well, allow ' s. just do a lowered test in high college and after that provide them a lot more performative job. prior to the test time. Well, they'' re finally now, you understand,. like every action has a reaction. This is the phase where,. oh, I'' ll reduce the test for doing the more performative things. that pupils didn'' t have before. So currently they ' re becoming really. extra overwhelmed as well as exams is much more demanding. They'' re really simpler to examine for. and also obtain it made with and go on a sort of point rather than do performative. kind of work in the classroom and outside.So I actually assume

that we require to actually concentrate on. what simply what is finest for youngsters. Today. And yes, we'' ve had COVID,. yet we ' re currently out of it. What the colleges as well as universities. and trades programs and various other areas they'' re going where there is evaluation. pressure cookers taking place. We have to prepare our students to be. durable, not simply to understand the subject, but have the ability to manage the analysis. I'' m going to ask some inquiries. I ' m trying to pay attention. why are we eliminating exams in the very early qualities. and why are we reducing the 10%? Am I just listening to that it'' s COVID? Or is it mental health that we'' re anxious concerning? So for you,. Chair, it'' s a combination of the two.So as I started coming. out of the pandemic, there'' s the universities. We identified that many trainees have actually had. a really tough educational experience in enhancement to now having to shift. from elementary as well as secondary. Therefore by merit. of that values of mental peace, we wanted to make certain that the tension that that specific kind of analysis,. we already know, trigger that'' s what everyone ' s highlighted here already,. was not the only determining element. To ensure that was the thinking behind. our choice. Okay. So you discussed you'' re going to go via an analysis. and also bring something in the springtime time. So, to start with, who are the stakeholders. that you are in fact talking with? So the all of the numerous individuals. that we receive comments similar to yourselves, we receive comments. from moms and dads, we receive that feedback from pupils, you receive. responses from staff, we obtain comments now from the trustees too. So we receive comments. from all the numerous stakeholders within, within our system which'' s informing us.And we are taking it outside. of where we have actually not received comments, however we see media conversations. We are mosting likely to be going. to post-secondary organizations themselves to talk. as well as questions. So post-secondary individuals. You claimed parents. You stated students. That is that it? Pupils, staff, moms and dads, trustees,. and also will be going to post-secondary. Okay. Okay. Perfect. And also when you stated you'' re mosting likely to bring. a record in springtime well, spring beginnings. You understand, it'' s just 2 weeks away. So when we have are we anticipated this record. that you made, this done the research study. and bringing the last report? What are you preparing on. doing progressing? So because they'' re very well. past their control, thanks for the people that we desire. that we have already received.That ' s already

educating our choice presently,. in addition to where we intend to be able to go. That will certainly notify our decision. that'' s beyond our control. So I don'' t intend to provide a date. that we'' re now able to do that.'I ' m not mosting likely to have the ability to hold you, too. Yet our objective is to make sure that means everyone will certainly be notified. concerning what our steps are for the new year so people can understand ahead of time. as well as they can make educated choices. Yeah. So I'' m not requesting for the real days. Are we talking . prior to the academic year ends in June? Is that the intent? Yes, absolutely. Certainly. Okay. Okay. That'' s that ' s all I wish to know so that we can. then established everyone for the brand-new year. Okay. I won'' t be labor. All the remarks that'we ' ve had,.'I think every person ' s done a wonderful job of stating their issues that they'' ve listened to from the components. Thank you, Trustee MacDonald. Hi, can everybody hear me? From what I ' m hearing, this decision. Do you have any kind of so in terms of any kind of actual records. that be able to give to you? No, I do not have anything. to share at this time. Can you share it at some point ? I could attempt to do so. Once again, the conversations that we ' ve had. where a few of them were conversations'that were like this in a similar fashion,. that you on your own were able to listen to your constituents. satisfy, you had the ability to pay attention to different stakeholders,. which assisted educate our decision.Also,. it wasn ' t measured to be able to now claim that I have.

x number of discussions over X period. I did not have that activity record. back. No. Okay. When you say stakeholders,. who are these stakeholders? Be all of the exact same people. that we pointed out ahead of time. Talking with some staff,. We did ask the trustees for under pastoral review control at that time. When you state you spoke to sorry. That'' s also a lot more stress and anxiety for them, since one right now they can claim, as well as I heard pupils say, I feel it, I feel the examination wasn'' t well worth that much. We understand that that ' s not the finest way the study has demonstrated that. And also that'' s the terrific thing. As well as that ' s, you understand, we can change that. That'' s that ' s all I want to recognize so that we can.When you state you talked to some moms and dads, I do not have a number. Oh, that was never ever tape-recorded, I'' m assuming, or I don'' t understand if

I ' m wrong.It was not so. It might have been 5. It can have been a thousand. I do not have any type of skills. Okay, well, I will just really meticulously outlined what I'' ve been hearing. And also the majority of moms and dads that I'' ve chatted to and'I ' ve determined 117 have told me that they are incredibly worried about their youngsters, leading, because they do really feel to resemble what Brad McDonald gets on I'' m sorry, Trustee McDonald has already claimed that, you understand, at some time they are mosting likely to need to create exams. So whether they'' re fearful currently or if it'' s stress and anxiety ridden currently, at some time in their life, they are mosting likely to need to create a test or hi there, if it'' s eliminated entirely all the way with college and college and also they reach the real work globe, you understand, it'' s I very doubt that the labor force will say, hey, will suit you and you won'' t need to do what everybody else is doing.That ' s

one fear The 2nd anxiety. that parents are informing me concerning is when they bring tasks house to complete over a week or 2 or whatever it is, it'' s usually the moms and dads helping the children with the job. So it ' s actually not a real analysis of what the kids are qualified of or what they'' ve learned. So I really do seem like examinations are probably the most effective choice. I indicate, they'' ve been done this method for numerous, lots of years.In the majority of our conversations that we'' ve had tonite, it was really hardly ever discussed that COVID and also and anything related to I ' d truly like to see the information. I'' ll be truthful, I ' m upset. Covid'' s quite a lot I ' m. going to make a guess over. and when it strikes, it'' s going to strike hard due to the fact that our trainees. are not going to be prepared at all. Which is my largest concern. And it'' s 117 parents. that I'' ve spoke with worried. So I'' m not attempting ahead down hard, however. I actually do have some pressing questions. And also I believe we actually need. to see the facts behind this due to the fact that I can see this spinning. Thank you, Chair. Thank you for the kind of one piece. I will simply share that I didn'' t refer to Colgate. I in the report I opened with I have not specified that multiple times. that that was an extremely crucial determining consider terms of assisting us. make the choices that we'' ve made.But I thanks for or your your comments particularly. Logan, do you have something to claim? I desire to just repeat the reality. that we approached this via once again, looking at public relations worry,. desiring to be able to sustain trainees. Which was the means that we approached it. and we paid attention to stakeholders in a selection of methods. There wasn'' t. necessarily rule around that, but we don'' t always have an official. a means that we do several other things right. So I think it'' s vital. for us to recognize that there are several means. in which we listen to respond to our public and also that we react in manner ins which we do and we concentrate on what we'' ve discovered. We concentrated a whole lot on. any notified information, study and so forth. in order to make our choices. And we'' re going to be doing that. in the same method currently, where we had a possibility today. to learn through you, to hear. from our stakeholders have actually expressed. We proceed to take part in conversations.We likewise have a personnel

committee. where we have a chance to listen to from team also,. and also we additionally speak with trainees. And also we mean to do that early spring. That there ' s a chance for individuals to comprehend what the techniques. I really hope that that will certainly aid. to make clear points as well as kind of summarize. much of the discussion. And also, you know, our our. our technique is really to do what ' s. in the best rate of interest of our pupils. As well as we give thanks to all of you. Thank you. Logan, I believe you have something to include,. simply to'be clear. So there ' s the three of us. I wear ' t think I think that we don ' t have'any type of even more. Say thanks to'you quite. Through your chair, provided. I think every one of our comments here today, as well as I think we ' re pretty well. around the age of, you know, a whole lot of our concerns that I believe. we ' ve all missed out on the very same'things I would love to point out that is policy accepted the Governance. as well as Plan Committee for evaluation of the Alaska Policy. Can we do that? So allow ' s look below. Yes. The plans of the'the report was speaking concerning today was exactly how that plan is carried out. So the policy itself, assessing and evaluating students in primary. and also senior high schools, might be described the Governance. Yeah, it ' s alright. I ' ll give it something. Now we have number eight on the schedule and that ' s purely motions. that he ' s desired to follow? Okay, number ten on the program.'No, we put on ' t. Sorry. There are no emotions. about departure relationships. And after that it ' s simply, you understand,. this is a emotion.Nothing? No'. All right. Thanks quite.

And finally, we take place to the last item. on the program, which is adjournment. I would like somebody. to place this on the floor from another location and seconded by the speech of the audio speaker. Thanks very a lot to everyone. who ' s been below for all the hard job that you have done. planned of presentations. We truly appreciate that.And have a good evening. Get going.

Thank you. I'' ll be straightforward, I ' m angry. Covid'' s pretty a lot I ' m. going to make an assumption over. That there ' s an opportunity for people to understand what the approaches. Currently we have number 8 on the agenda and also that ' s purely motions. As well as then it ' s just, you know,.
