How parents can solve a concern at school

Most concerns at schools can be solved through meeting with teachers and if necessary principals and vice-principals at school.

See the How parents can solve a concern at school (pdf) to see the process that parents/guardians should follow.

The Vancouver School Board recognizes and respects the fact that parents/guardians and/or students may sometimes strongly disagree with decisions made by by school employees. In this rare case a formal appeal process may be launched but only when an attempt has been made to resolve the issues at school.

A formal appeal must involve decisions that significantly affect the health, education or safety of a child at school.
