The Project's mandate was to examine almost every aspect of the system, focussing on standards and discipline. content and organization of the curriculum. the credit program and preparation of students for the world of work. More than 600 submissions were received, and a three- day symposium was held in Toronto in September 1980, attended by some 200 people from all over Ontario. Under the heading, "Reshaping Secondary School Education", the Paper outlined the role of secondary education, focuss- ing first on the needs of today's students and promi- nent characteristics of their present situation in society, commenting that: - They mature biologically about two years earlier than 75 years ago. -They are more concerned than students of ten years ago about employment, and want schools to do more to prepare them for jobs. -More of them stay longer in school than their parents' generation. -Their friends, peers and the media influence their values and behaviour more than in the.past, and - accor- ding to some research - more than parents and teachers. -More of them live. in homes with one parent or have both parents working. The Project also tried to look 20 years ahead. - The rate of technological change will continue to accelerate with the result that futures will be far less certain than they used to be. This will affect not only the content of school programs but their method of delivery. - The role of women in our society has shifted drastical- ly. Their full participation in all aspects of oursociety will continue to grow over the period under study. Schools must therefore, provide similar opportunities for both sexes in the course of their education, and role models to complement and provide examples for that schooling. - Our .economic future, particularly with the in-. crease in energy costs and our society's dependence upon energy. is uncertain. Conservation and en- viromental issues are therefore. increasingly im- portant • The future of our province and country is more bound up with that of other provinces and coup-_ tries -than ever before. - Studentscpust be prepared for a life in which they will undergo retraining or re-education on a con- tinual basis. This kind of continuing education has already begun and is rapidly accelerating. - As we become an older society. students and young people will become a minori- ty of the population. The Project also took into account the Goals of Educa- tion set out by the Minister, endeavouring to place them in an order corresponding to the degree to which the school can help students achieve them. as follows: 1. Learn the basic Knowledge and skills needed to understand and express ideas through words, numbers and othe symbols. 2. Appreciate and profit from an awareness of the various ways people learn. 3. Learn to be resourceful and creative in acquiring new knowledge, managing personal matters. and cop- ing with a changing world. 4. Develop skills and at- titudes that will enable them to enjoy their work and be productive on the job. 5. Develop self-reliance in solving the practical problems of everyday life. 6. Acquire a feeling of self- worth through their own achievements and the en- couragement of others. 7. Respect the customs and beliefs of others in their society. 8. Learn to respect. their environment and use resources widely. 9. Accept personal respon- sibility in their own com- munities and in the larger society. 10. Appreciate and enjoy the arts. 11. Acquire habits and at- titudes that will help them to be fit and healthy. 12. Develop a personal set of values that includes respect for the values of others. 13. Appreciate the respon- sibilities and benefits of family life and the role of the family in our society.

Depth is one of the most difficult losses we can ex- perience - especially the death of o family member or spouse. The visitation and funeral service can be "tools" that help us accept the fact of death and permanent separation as the real thing. It becomes a time of consolation to those who have experience the loss -a time for friends•to SHARE their grief. The funeral rhelPs us remember the life of the lost cne. It provides strength for the family and friends and communicates to all those attending that this life is now permanently separated from ours. Sometimes those who do not attend the funerol of a loved and close one suffer more afterwards. The funeral con become the first stepping stone to the rebuilding of our own lives without the presence of the deceased. Call us if you'd like more helpful information andbooklets on the • subject of funerals. 1�+-1 The Funeral Home in Exeter who is o member of the Ontario Funeral Service Association is: IRV ARMSTRONG FUNERAL HOME PHONE 235 1220 BOB FLETCHER GREAT VALUES o.
