To support Division and School planning, Grande Prairie Public School Division communicates and engages with stakeholders to inform education plans and to share progress towards achieving outcomes.
Annual Division Assurance Survey
Each year, the Grande Prairie Public School Division gathers information to improve the quality of education for all members of its community. The annual Division Assurance Survey, completed by parents/guardians, staff, and students, is one way for you to contribute to this process.

Results from Division Assurance Surveys are used to update Division and School 3-Year Education Plans , which include a more detailed implementation plan, each spring. These plans identify the priorities, outcomes, and strategies used to achieve our goals. Engagement with School Councils, parents, staff, and students informs school and Division priorities.
The 3-Year Education Plan 2024-2027 is developed around 3 priority areas:
- Teaching and Learning
- Belonging
- Leadership
The GPPSD “2024 Alberta Education Results Report” provides further analysis of results and strategies to support the 3 Year Education Plan. Additionally, the Division 3-Year Education Plan includes a more detailed implementation plan and next steps.
