**Purpose and Goal of**
**the**
**Learning Nest**
**Program***:

- The Learning Nest is an HWDSB secondary program for Indigenous learners. The program is considered to be a Special Program based on the Ontario Human Rights Code, which states: “Special programs must respond to a proven need and real disadvantage. Systemic discrimination is often hidden. People from historically disadvantaged groups often do not have access to the same opportunities as others. Special programs help level the playing field.”
- _(Special Programs and _
- the Ontario Human Rights Code, _
- OHRC)_
- ._
- Indigenous peoples have an ingrained mistrust of Eurocentric education systems. Education is synonymous with fear, trauma, and violence. Church and state-run institutions, such as Residential Schools and Federal Indian Day Schools contributed to the destruction of kinship systems by forcibly removing children from their families, stripping away their identity, languages, worldviews, practices and beliefs. The abuses the children and families had experienced continue to leave ‘soul wounds’, especially as survivors and their families must relive the trauma in filing their claims outlining the atrocities they had experienced and witnessed because of these schools.
- The Learning Nest program enables Indigenous learners to experience a quality education that is culturally immersive, one that provides rich and authentic learning experiences rooted in Indigenous Knowledge systems, languages, worldviews and ways of knowing, being, and doing. Through a student-centred and student-driven approach, teaching and support staff will recognize, value and celebrate gifts, strengths and individualized learning needs in support of each learner’s educational goals.
- This program is designed to support Indigenous learners who are working through layers of their own intergenerational trauma and healing. Indigenous learners and families continue to navigate structural/institutional/societal barriers (e.g., systemic poverty) and experience complex circumstances, unique needs and lived realities that contribute to their disengagement from schooling. Thus, the Learning Nest intends to be a place that welcomes the most vulnerable, marginalized and disadvantaged Indigenous learners that have experienced challenges within their education experience. At the Learning Nest, Indigenous learner's educational wellness is nurtured and nourished within the palisades of the Learning Nest, protecting each learner's right to Education and Indigenous Cultural Safety. It is our understanding that once grounded in local Indigenous Knowledges and ways of knowing, being, and doing in a safe learning environment where Indigenous Cultural Safety is normalized, that we can then nourish their learning spirits holistically, contribute to their healing journeys and empower them to become agents of change in their communities and within the dominant mainstream society.
- **Applications must include a one-page **summary demonstrating how **they** **will** **successfully implement Indigenous Knowledge into **programming **in a manner that connects to curriculu**m expectations**.**

**KEY COMPETENCIES**:
As a member of a collaborative team consisting of HWDSB staff, including the Indigenous Education Lead, Community Scholar, Indigenous Social Workers, and Indigenous Cultural Safety team, the teacher should demonstrate:
- Humility and compassion in their approach to supporting the needs of Indigenous learners.- An ability and ongoing commitment to establishing trusting and respectful relationships with Indigenous learners, their families, caregivers and the local Indigenous community.- Engagement in student outreach to support a continuum/spectrum of supports as students move into and out of the prog
