IFC-P1- Pilot Projects

Prairie Spirit School Division encourages the use of pilot projects in education where the outcome or experience is expected to have educational value for the pupils of the Division.

New or trial courses sponsored and/or subsidized by Manitoba Education and Advanced Learning are considered as pilot projects.

In addition, pilot projects include significant initiatives, at the divisional or school level, which are intended to enhance school effectiveness and student learning.  They address a particular aspect of the educational or instructional process, such as:

• Curriculum implementation;

• Instruction;

• Assessment;

• Classroom  management;

• School organization;

• Collaborative planning.

Pilot projects may be supported, in whole or in part, by the Student Support Branch of Manitoba Education and Advanced Learning.

All pilot projects must be approved by the Principal and the Superintendent’s department.

The evaluation of pilot projects will be done by the developers of the program, if they are sponsored by Manitoba Education and Advanced Learning.  Other projects will be evaluated as outlined in the approved proposal for same.
