How should schools conduct the annual verification of the Aboriginal identifier?
School authorities and schools are responsible to ensure that students and parents are provided with an opportunity to verify the demographic information on the student record annually. This may be done in a variety of ways, depending on district procedures. For example, many school authorities send home a copy of the student information on file and ask parents to review, update and sign the document in September each year. It is not necessary for school authorities to use a separate process for the Aboriginal identity question. In the event that a form is not returned, schools may assume that there is no change to the information from the previous year.
