1. TCDSB Long Term Program Plan Presented Tuesday, March 27 th, 2007 (abridged Nov ‘09)

2. Long Term Program Plan (LTPP) Program strong driver in LTAP Key Considerations: Catholic presence in all communities Innovative and competitive programs Compete with Private and Co-Terminous Board/schools – not our own Catholic neighbouring Secondary Schools Interconnection within our communities Range of programs – opportunities for all students System perspective Fiscal responsibility

3. Brief Update (since April 2007) 14 new Pathways Fast Forward Programs for a total of 24 across the system 9 new Special High Skills Major Programs 5 Dual Credit Programs 7 new “specialty programs” New LTPP committee has been resuscitated. Goal: Updated Plan by Spring 2009 Consultation with SSPA pending in Dec 09.

4. Two key considerations: Program is a key component in ensuring the viability of any given secondary school, however enrolment drivers are complex and caution should be observed in drawing 1:1 correlations between any given program and enrolment. As schools in a collaborative enterprise of ensuring the viability of Catholic Education and a strong presence in the GTA, it is necessary to assess all schools within the SARC for what programs may needed to be added or moved. Consideration of elementary programming in the area may also be warranted, particularly if considering a K-12 or 7-12 option.

5. Secondary LTPP Innovative programming seen as key Specialty programs: provide students with a particular curriculum focus to assist them in meeting diploma requirements and in making the transition to post-secondary destinations. ( OSS, Grades 9 – 12, Program and Diploma Requirements, 7.4, 1999) Fast Forward: Leading to Workplace or College Pathways “Specialty Programs” as employed in LTPP: Leading to College or University Pathways
