A familiar name will help the local school board in its school review process. Deloitte Inc., the consulting group that completed an audit which led to the previous board being fired, has been hired to help develop impact assessment reports for the 10 schools up for review. Board member Judith Sullivan-Corney says they hired the consulting firm to help make sure it was a smooth process.
"We heard from focus groups that the study committees needed to have some help and that there was a distrust about the information that had come from the school board, so, therefore what I was trying to do was to open up the process so the school advisory committees received their impact assessment information as early as possible."
The group was selected out of two applicants through a call for proposals on the provincial government website. Deloitte is in the early stages of meeting with respective principals as well as the chair of each advisory committee. Deloitte is considered one of Canada's leading professional services firms that provides audit, tax, consulting, and financial advisory services. The group will wrap up its analysis and make its recommendations to the new school board next February.
