Policy Statement

The North Vancouver Board of Education (the Board) is dedicated to ensuring equitable access to education for all students through inclusive practices, personalized supports, and flexible services that enhance student learning. We are committed to fostering learning communities where every student feels valued, included, and a true sense of belonging.

All students, and specifically neurodivergent students and students with disabilities, benefit from universally designed curriculum, planning, instruction and supportive environments. Inclusive education services and supports are designed to enable every student to access learning, foster the development of a positive self-identity, and build confidence based on individualized goals and measures of success. In collaboration with students and families, our collective goal is to create meaningful opportunities to ensure all learners can achieve their future goals.

All North Vancouver School District (NVSD) schools have equitable access to a consistent range of services and supports through a tiered service delivery model beginning with universal access for all learners at the classroom level. We support inclusive education in schools and classrooms through a continuum of services based on increasing levels of supports and services (universal, targeted, and intensive) that are guided by individual student progress.

NVSD Inclusive Education services and supports are consistent with and guided by provincial legislation, policies, procedures and guidelines.

Information on NVSD services and programs can be found here: Inclusive Education - North Vancouver School District
