Exclusion of students with special needs and/or disabilities is a notable problem in BC K-12 schools. *Exclusion often is, under the School Act, actually a suspension and the rules that govern this should be laid out in School Board policy in for each District.
Some aspects of this issue were addressed and documented last year in a survey conducted by BCCPAC. See the results of this survey here:
