    The Education Accord NL has released its final report, which is designed to transform and modernize our education system. Education Minister Bernard Davis says the report focuses on four pillars; health and well-being in education environments, early learning and childhood development, education engagement and transformation in K-12, and post-secondary education and learning across the lifespan.

    Davis says the report’s 10-year vision includes 110 calls for action that prioritize seamless transitions across the system, promote a learner-centric educational ecosystem, and embrace technology to prepare learners and educators for the opportunities and demands of the future.
