As part of the implementation process, it is important for school leaders to have opportunities to connect with one another to discuss successes and challenges. From June 2022 to November 2022, two Professional Learning Networks (PLNs) will meet to discuss and reflect on the implementation of the revised curriculum. Through the PLNs, school leaders will have the opportunity to share resources and practices that have been useful at different steps of the implementation process. Association representatives will be present during the meetings of the PLNs to support the discussions and gather information to support resource development.
