In yet another effort to completely dumb down standards for its students, the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) intends to “decolonize” assessment practices during the next school year.
A memo sent to staff by the interim associate director of student well-being and innovation, Andrew Gold, and centrally assigned principal. Denise De Paola, revealed the new practice to teachers.
In the memo – obtained by True North – the two claim that “decolonization” of student assessments, equity anti-oppression and anti-racism are “at the core” of student learning and achievement.
