Learn how the Greater Essex County District School Board is working to remove barriers and enhance accessibility for those with disabilities with our Multi-Year Accessibility Plan.

2022-2026 Multi-Year Accessibility Plan

This plan describes how GECDSB will meet the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), the Standards for Customer Service and the Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation.

Our objectives

Our objectives within the Multi-Year Accessibility Plan will be to define:

  • Process by which we will identify, remove and prevent barriers
  • Our recent efforts to remove and prevent barriers
  • Measures we will take in the five-year cycle to identify, remove and prevent barriers
  • Our commitment to provide an annual status report on the plan implementation
  • Our commitment to review and update the plan at least once every five years
  • How we will make the plan available to the public

Identified barriers

The plan identifies accessibility barriers that will be addressed and improved throughout the plan's timeline:

  • Architectural
  • Attitudinal
  • Built Environment
  • Informational
  • Learning
  • Physical
  • Policy/Practice
  • Systemic
  • Technological
  • Transportation

Review and monitoring

To review and monitor the plan's progress, the Accessibility Planning Committee will:

  • Meet to review and evaluate the effectiveness of the barrier removal and protection strategies twice a year
  • Prepare an annual accessibility status report to document the process
  • Review and update the Multi-Year Accessibility Plan every five years
