Thank you @costapow for collaborating.
Our demands:
As citizens of Alberta, we call on the Premier and the Minister of Education to:
As citizens of Alberta, we call on the Premier and the Minister of Education to:
- Reconvene the curriculum working groups from the previous rewrite that began under previous governments and to fully respect the professional expertise of these groups.
- Commit to the longstanding, apolitical curriculum development process, and dissolve the appointments of advisors selected at the recommendation of UCP politicians.
- Restore the curriculum development partnership with the ATA, as without the expertise and engagement of teachers, successful curriculum development and implementation is impossible.
"The Confederacy of Treaty No. 6 Chiefs urges the provincial government to revise this curriculum anew with the informed consent of Treaty No. 6 First Nations, as per the mandate of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action as well as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples."
"consultation does not mean we endorse the curriculum in its current form."
"The Métis Nation has monumental concerns with what was released to Albertans in your [Minister of Education] press release to the extent that we have had very little input to the design of this new draft curriculum despite our attempts to be included in the committees that were established...
"I am calling you to conduct a re-draft of the K-12 curriculum in collaboration with the Métis and other Indigenous groups in this province.

"As an association of Black Teachers and allies, looking to amplify the voices of all students and educators in education, we echo the words of the community. This curriculum is potentially harmful; we hope the necessary changes will be made."
“The government is being told loudly and clearly that this curriculum is unacceptable. We now need the government to announce a stop to their implementation plans and to spell out a new way forward.”
CITIZEN ALLIANCE AGAINST DRAFT CURRICULUM
We are an alliance of grassroots, citizen-driven organizations joining forces to call on the Alberta government to trash the K-6 Draft Curriculum released Mar. 29, 2021.
As parents, educators, community members, we reject this curriculum draft as it will set Alberta's world-class education system back many decades. It is full of nonsensical, age-inappropriate content and is harmful to children.
