Abstract:
This report outlines the healthy living sections of Ontario's Health and physical education curriculum for grades nine through twelve. It also looks at Ontario's Safe School Act as a foundation for individual Boards to create safe learning environments for all students. The report also examines Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board's Equity and Diversity policy, Safe Schools Policy and the Selection of learning resources policy. The report concludes that OPIRG's proposed 'Queer Workshops" can be implemented in Peterborough high schools.
