Bylaw and Policy Manual

The Board is ultimately responsible for all district policy, which is divided into two areas:

  1. Bylaws set out the specific rules, not covered by legislation, by which the Board will be governed. Bylaws are also legally required for budgets, capital projects, disposal of lands and school closures, but these specific bylaws are not presented as part of district policy.
  2. Policies articulate and define important objectives, principles or values; and to define roles, responsibilities and authority.

The Board of Education has a duty to develop, implement, review and revise education policies that reflect the aspirations of the community and are consistent with overall provincial guidelines and its own mission and bylaws. The Board will consult with the Gulf Islands learning community and public on the development and revision of policies. 

Policies currently in circulation for feedback.


Administrative Practices are the responsibility of the Superintendent and are operational in nature. They allow for consistent and effective operations in an organization or a department.
