The Sir Wilfrid Laurier ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± Board will begin on Monday, May 14, 2018, a consultation on a Special Project ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± in Laval. The Special Project ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± is a school established for the purposes of a particular educational project focused on a specific pedagogical approach or on a specific program and on a particular organization of the curriculum. It offers a distinct curriculum while respecting the subjects mandated by the Basic ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± Regulations for preschool, primary and secondary education. The ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± Board may establish the entrance criteria for students to register in the Special Project ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ±. This school is often referred to as a 240 ÌÇÐÄvlog»áÔ± as it is a special school based on the provisions of Article 240 in the Education Act, which states:

“By way of exception, at the request of a group of parents and after consulting with the parents’ committee, a school board may, with the Minister’s approval, establish a school for the purposes of a specific project other than a religious project, subject to the conditions and for the period determined by the Minister.
