First Nations Education

First Nations Education refers to the educational systems and programs designed to meet the specific needs, cultures, and histories of Indigenous peoples in Canada. It aims to provide equitable access to quality education while respecting traditional languages, land, and ways of learning. This includes integrating Indigenous knowledge, values, and perspectives into curricula, as well as promoting self-determination and cultural preservation. Efforts focus on closing achievement gaps, ensuring students feel represented and supported, and fostering environments where Indigenous identities are affirmed and valued within the broader educational landscape.
