​​​​The Ministry of Education’s revised 2019 Elementary Health an​d Physical Education Curriculum and the The 2019 Addendum to The Kindergarten Program - was released on August 21, 2019, and will be implemented throughout the 2019/2020 school year.  

The Ministry has mandated, through PPM 162, that as of November 30, 2019, all school boards in Ontario had to have in place a policy and/or procedure that allows parents to exempt their children from instruction of the Human Development and Sexual Health component of the HPE curriculum.  Please see the Halton District School Board Administrative Procedure for Human Development and Sexual Health Exemption, Grades 1-8.  

For further information, please review the Ministry of Education’s parent support resources: Parent Support Resources for The 2019 Health & Physical Education Curriculum.​
