Ontario’s Education Act stipulates that every exceptional student is entitled to special education programs and services meeting his or her unique needs.

The Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC) is mandated by the Ministry of Education and Training and every school board is required to establish a SEAC.

The committee, which is appointed by the board, is made up of representatives of local associations, community agencies, trustees and student trustees/senators of the board.  Learning Services – Student Support staff provide support and resources for the committee.

SEAC meetings are open meetings, and the public is welcome to attend. For the 2025-2026 school year, SEAC meetings will be held at the Bluewater Education Centre on the fourth Monday of every month, with the exception of September, December, and March.
