Can the Ministry of Education, go into BCeSIS and look at information on students in First Nations schools?
No person in the Ministry has access to the data in BCeSIS. Because BCeSIS is owned by the member districts and schools (i.e. First Nations schools), and only endorsed by the Ministry, the Ministry has no right to the data or access to the data. Data that is needed by the Ministry to meet legislative requirements (i.e. 1701 reports or TRAX) is provided by schools to the Ministry, and NOT extracted from BCeSIS by the Ministry.
