How is your equity work supporting the re-distribution of access and opportunity? Awesome question from Paul Gorski. #YRDSBassessment
"Equity is about redistributing access to opportunity - what are shifts in policy practice and curriculum that we need to do to make it equitable? How are these opportunities being distributed for equal access?" @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

Grappling with this statement “Celebrating diversity isn’t about equity and justice” by @pgorski We need to rethink how we identify the voices and experiences of our marginalized Ss in schools; instead of repeating the “gentle diversity work” #YRDSBAssessment – at Richmond Hill, Ontario

"Good intentions are not enough. There is an expiration date on good intentions. We need to question the intention" @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment
"There’s an ideological block. If we don’t take the time to understand why the gaps and disparities exist, then we’re not capable of coming up with strategies to fix those things." @pgorski #yrdsbassessment

Our biggest block isn’t a practical block, the biggest block is ideological. If we don’t understand why the gaps exist then we won’t be capable of coming up with the strategies. @pgorski #yrdsbassessment
Take away from @KarenFriedman this morning - "Equity is an instructional issue." #yrdsbassessment Excited for a full day of learning at the Assessment Summer Institute.
