Abstract
This policy applies to all Board Members and employees under the jurisdiction of the Cape Breton-Victoria Regional School Board. It applies to all forms of written, verbal, and electronic communication. Purpose To provide a comprehensive communications plan that will give clear guidelines and define roles and responsibilities for all those involved in the sharing, distributing, and exchange of information within the Board. It is hoped that the procedures set out in this policy will help to manage the flow of information between all stakeholders and staff of the CB-VRSB. The Board believes that miscommunication and/or lack of awareness will be avoided by providing clear directions to all stakeholders regarding fair, reasonable and effective communication. Policy Statement The Cape Breton-Victoria Regional School Board recognizes the need for effective and organized communications among members of the school system and with the community at large. It is the belief of the CB-VRSB that open, honest, and clear communications are fundamental to efficient operation within the Board. The Board recognizes its responsibility for proactive, two-way communications with its stakeholders in the belief that an informed community will enhance student learning and build support for public education. The CB-VRSB believes that all employees, as well as members of the Board, have a role to play in fostering pride in our Board and celebrating success in the learning community. To that end, the Cape Breton-Victoria Regional School Board will provide accurate and appropriate information to the public in a timely manner that is not disruptive to the learning environment.
