This Indigenous Education Framework for Newfoundland and Labrador is designed to enhance the learning experience for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous students by exploring the histories, traditions, cultures, worldviews, and contemporary lifestyles of Indigenous peoples. It outlines a vision where all students successfully complete K-12 education with knowledge and confidence, and educators understand Indigenous history for reconciliation. Key policy commitments include reflecting Indigenous culture in curriculum, accurately representing Indigenous ways of life, integrating works of Indigenous artists and scholars, and infusing revised curriculum with Indigenous history and culture to address racism and build respect. The framework is guided by seven principles, including the understanding that learning is embedded in history, language, culture, identity, and is holistic, collaborative, and respects Indigenous self-determination.
