Fact Sheet #2: An Intersectional View of TDSB Students with Special Education Needs is the second in a series of four fact sheets examining a range of topics impacting students with special education needs (SEN) within the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). The first fact sheet provided an introductory overview of TDSB students with SEN in the 2023-24 school year. This fact sheet will explore comparisons between students with SEN in the TDSB, Greater Toronto Area (GTA) school boards and the province of Ontario, as well as the intersections between special education needs and demographic variables such as race, income, and gender.
By offering a detailed snapshot of our current landscape, we hope these documents will serve as a valuable resource for all stakeholders as we work together to support students with special education needs.
