Safe Schools

Parkview Public School

2026-2027 Safe and Inclusive School Plan

Our school is committed to providing all students with a safe, caring, and inclusive learning environment free from bullying and harassment that promotes respect, acceptance, and empathy.

Staff, students, parents and caregivers, and community partners will work together as a team to help make our school safe and welcoming for everyone.

The Safe and Inclusive School Plan highlights some of the key actions that our school community will put in place as part of our bullying prevention and intervention efforts.

Key Priorities and Goals

Cultivating students who act responsibly and contribute positively to a respectful and inclusive school community.

We are doing this to ensure students are committed to growing their empathy and owning their actions.

Key Actions or Strategies

  • The school will strive to provide clear and consistent expectations and common language to ensure students respect themselves, others and the school community.
  • Staff will model strategies through community circles, calm and validating interactions, using random groupings, and ensuring students see themselves in the materials and lessons we create.
  • Students will show this through common respectful language, leadership opportunities, and kind interactions with peers and teachers.

Community and Home Connections

  • Ask your child how empathy has helped them to understand other students’ point of view.
  • Try identifying things you have in common with others in your Parkview community at home with your child.
  • Check out this Mental Health and Well Being for Families resource.

This Safe Schools and Well-Being portfolio collaborates to support staff through Tier-1, evidence-based practices. These foundational practices establish safety, connection, and regulation, which are essential conditions for learning. Through the important work, a deep understanding of students and relationships will foster the positive climate necessary for student well-being and achievement.

Developing a Safe and Inclusive Culture

Under the direction and guidance of the Ministry of Education (Policy/Program Memorandum No. 144 (PPM144), our School Board is committed to supporting schools to create and maintain positive school climates.

The Thames Valley District School Board would like to introduce the Safe and Inclusive School Plan (SISP). This plan replaces the former Bullying Prevention and Intervention Plan (BPIP), and the Safe and Accepting School Plan. This plan will be completed annually by every elementary and secondary school in the Thames Valley District School Board.

This team is composed of students, family members, teachers, support staff, community partners, and the principal and/or vice principal. The Safe and Inclusive School Team meets several times throughout the school year. During this time, school teams will identify one local priority, and create a plan to support the identified goal. As the plan is implemented throughout the year, the Safe and Inclusive School team will continuously support these goals and monitor the results.
