About the CBE

Student success is at the centre of all CBE decisions. Achieving student success requires commitment from the entire CBE community – employees, students, parents/guardians, industry leaders and government. It requires a vision of what success looks like for each student and a plan for how we get there.

The Education Plan ​​guides our work and​ connects each employee to the ultimate goal of student success. The plan also aligns with the direction of Alberta Education​ & Childcare​.​

Student, staff and parent perspectives also inform the development of the Education Plan. These perspectives are gathered from a variety of sources in recognition of the important role we all play in supporting the Board of Trustees' priorities for student success. 

Read more​ about this engagement and how these perspectives shaped the current Education Plan.

​The 2024-27 Education plan is in year two of its three-year cycle. The plan was approved by the Board of Trustees at its regular public board meeting on May 27, 2025​​.​​

Education Plan Frameworks

The CBE Education Plan identifies the goal to create strong student achievement and well-being for lifelong success​​​. A key shift in our new Education Plan is the development of frameworks in key areas of focus that are research informed and will endure over time.​

The frameworks are aligned with our commitment to student achievement, equity and well-being. Through the system-wide implementation of the frameworks, key outcomes identified in the Education Plan ​​will support o​ur leaders and teachers in the achievement of student success.
