People for Education: The inconsistent and under-resourced state of anti-racism strategies across Canada

People for Education's report shows inconsistent and under-resourced anti-racism strategies throughout Canada, particularly underscoring gaps in implementation within Ontario schools. Despite a government commitment of $45 million to a three-year Anti-Racism Strategy in 2019, the report reveals a deceleration in the execution of Ontario's school board equity plans. Persistent issues include a deficiency in disaggregated data collection, the absence of a national strategy, and a lack of implementation framework. To rectify these challenges, People for Education recommends addressing societal taboos surrounding race, enhancing transparency in data collection and reporting, and fostering increased involvement from historically impacted groups.

Report: Ontario school boards struggling to implement anti-racism plans

A report from People for Education highlights the lengthy implementation of anti-racism efforts in Canadian schools, attributing the slow progress to insufficient data collection and resource allocation. While Ontario was the first province to pass anti-racism legislation in 2017, the report notes significant inconsistencies in the execution of anti-racism strategies across publicly-funded school boards. Data reveals that 74% of school boards mention racism in equity policies, 40% have anti-racism statements on their websites, and 28% have online anti-racism strategies. The report underscores the importance of identity-based data for understanding disparities and advocates for a whole-of-government approach, emphasizing the need for resources and time in schools to address anti-racism effectively.
