Board agrees to intensive
study of separate system
Segments ofBy Stephanie Levesque
Board will fall under the m cross ope during ththe Separate ecom-
ing year as it has agreed to a study by its own
representatives, the public and the Ministry o
Education.
A co-operative evaluation development system
study (CEDSS) was approved by the board at its May
24 meeting following a presentation on the subject by
regional superintendent Mike Cyze of London.
Director of education William Eckert emphasized
that exactly what is to be studied is "negotiable" with
the Ministry. Mr. Cyze explained that the regional of-
fice, which co-ordinates the study, can only do three
CEDSS' in one school year.
"In most situations, half a dozen topics are studied.
That's not to say we're limited except in what we can
do and do well within a certain time frame," said the
regional superintendent.
Mr. Eckert outlined what he would like to see con-
sidered in the study. The structure of both the board
and administration, the physical facilities or school
buildings, and principals as educational planners
were four main areas the director would like to see
explored further.
There will be two teams to carry out the study - in-
ternal and external teams - which will fall under the
direction of a regional co-ordinator
Once topics to be studied have been Bete?pined by
hoo
the director and the ministry, a leader is chosen for
the internal team. It was suggested that a principal
1118y be used to head up the internal team for the
f Huron -Perth system.
"Isn't the principal reviewing himself?" asked
board chairman Ron Murray.
Mr. Eckert said in effect, the principal would be,
but the rest of the study team is to be made up of
teachers, parents, a member of the general public
and trustees. The external team will consist of
Ministry officials and "experts" in particular fields
from boards across the province.
The question of east came up and Mr. Cyze stated
the Ministry will pay up to $20,000 of the board's
costs. Anticipated expenses are far meeting costs
such as travel and supply teachers, office supplies
and the preparation of the final report.
"A maximum of $20,000 is made available upon
• submission of the final report," said the regional
superintendent noting that a similar study had cost
about $8,600 for the Windsor Roman Catholic
Separate School Board.
"Who initiated these studies and how come?" ask-
ed Mr. Murray.,
Mr. Cyze stated the ministry initiated the studies.
"It was found that with the demise of inspections
