​​​​卡尔加里教育局的董事会和管理层经过仔细审查了省级草案课程以及我们系统内的现实情况。卡尔加里教育局决定不参与2021年秋季的草案课程试点。该决定考虑到疫情的重大影响以及专注于我们系统内学生的即时学习需求的重要性。

虽然我们理解政府重设计划课程的意图是为了学生学习的好处，但我们有类似于教育工作者、学术人员、家长和社区成员所表达的关切。

作为艾伯塔省最大的公立学校董事会，我们认为向艾伯塔省教育部提供对草案课程的反馈非常重要。在秋季，我们将通过与课堂教师和课程专家的焦点小组收集有意义的反馈意见。鼓励员工、家长/监护人和社区成员继续向艾伯塔省教育部提供反馈意见（此处）。

卡尔加里教育局支持加强课程的目标，以便为学生未来做好准备。我们相信政府将会考虑整个省份收集到的所有反馈意见，并在2022年9月实施之前进行必要的修改。

​​​​The Board of Trustees and Administration of The Calgary Board of Education have taken the time to carefully review the draft provincial curriculum and current realities within our system. The CBE has decided not to participate in the draft curriculum pilot in fall 2021. This decision considered the significant impacts of the pandemic and the importance of focusing on the immediate learning needs of students across our system.

While we appreciate the government’s intention to redesign the curriculum for the benefit of student learning, we have concerns similar to those expressed by educators, academic staff, parents, and community members. 

As the largest public school board in Alberta, we believe it is vitally important to provide Alberta Education with feedback on the draft curriculum. In the fall, we will gather meaningful feedback through focus groups with classroom teachers and curriculum specialists. Staff, parents/guardians and community members are encouraged to continue providing feedback to Alberta Education here​. 

The CBE supports the goal of strengthening the curriculum to prepare students for the future. We trust that government will consider all the feedback gathered across the province and make the necessary changes prior to implementation in September 2022.
