Policy Statement
Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington (PVNC) Catholic District School
Board is committed to the principles and practices of good governance. Governance provides a
framework for decision making, the effective stewardship of resources and ethical leadership.
The Catholic Social Teachings inform our understanding of effective governance and
leadership. In the PVNC Catholic District School Board good governance is seen as the
exercise of authority, direction, and accountability to support our moral purpose and our vision
of Achieving Excellence in Catholic education through Learning, Leadership and
Service. In our Catholic system, student achievement and well-being are measured by both the
successful mastering of Ministry of Education curricula as well as the Ontario Catholic School
Graduate Expectations.
Purpose
To create a shared understanding of the principles and practices of good governance by
articulating a multi-year strategic plan with a clear vision and focused priorities; by
establishing a consistent process for the development, implementation and monitoring of
directional policies and administrative procedures, and by respecting the distinct roles and
responsibilities of the board of trustees and staff.
Alignment with Multi Year Strategic Plan
The Governance, Vision and Strategic Priorities Policy supports our Vision for Achieving
Excellence in Catholic Education through Learning, Leadership and Service. This Vision calls
the Board to these Strategic Priorities:
 Ensure our structures, processes, relationships, and actions reflect our Gospel and
Catholic Social Teachings.
 Implement the most effective, evidenced-based instructional and assessment practices
to help all students meet the Catholic School Graduate Expectations.
 Embed technology to support digital literacy, creativity, innovation, collaboration, and
the learning needs of all students.
