An Analysis of the Written Submissions to Manitoba’s Commission on Kindergarten to Grade 12 Education: Identification and Examination of the Major Themes
Manitoba’s Commission on Kindergarten to Grade 12 Education (Commission) offered Manitobans the opportunity to provide input and participate in improving student achievement and student outcomes. One way to facilitate this process was by providing written submissions to the Commission. The Commission received fax, email, regular mail, and form letter submissions.
In all, the Commission received 2,309 written submissions. This included 1,836 form letters and 473 written submissions. These submissions were from individuals, representatives of municipalities, school divisions, and organizations across Manitoba. There was also one letter from a Saskatchewan school division. The written submissions were presented in many formats, including memorandums, reports, school board resolutions, formal institutional papers, as well as personal letters and handwritten correspondences.
