How is Aboriginal learner data going to be used?
Aboriginal learner data will be used by Alberta Education to improve outcomes for FNMI students by providing data to support planning for improvement and accountability, inform policy and funding decisions, and for measurement and reporting purposes. Measures will include high school completion rates, transition rates from high school to post-secondary education, Provincial Achievement Tests and Diploma Examination results. Results shall only be reported on an aggregate basis, meaning that information will be released for large groups of learners, such as for the province, or an authority as a whole.
