Windsor, ON N9A 6K1
Posting Number: 2025-171

 

The Greater Essex County District School Board actively encourage applications from members of groups with historical and/or current barriers to equity, including, but not limited to:

  • First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, and all other Indigenous peoples; 
  • members of groups that commonly experience discrimination due to race, ancestry, colour, religion and/or spiritual beliefs, or place of origin;
  • persons with visible and/or invisible (physical and/or mental) disabilities; 
  • persons who identify as women; and persons of marginalized sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions.

We recognize that many of these identities intersect and therefore, equity, diversity and inclusion can be complex. We value and respect the contributions that each person brings to enriching the Board and are committed to ensuring full and equal participation for all in communities that we serve.

The Greater Essex County District School Board has an accommodation process in place that provides accommodations for employees and applicants. In accordance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), the GECDSB strives to ensure that all recruiting processes are non-discriminatory and barrier-free. If you require an accommodation based on any Code-protected ground under the Ontario Human Rights Code for your interview, testing, and/or practicum, please advise the Recruitment Team member when contacted for an interview, testing and/or practicum. This will ensure that the appropriate accommodation(s) are in place prior to you attending.
