Provincial Auditor Judy Ferguson trained her eye on the Saskatoon Public School Division and has found room for improvement. She says about seven per cent of Saskatoon’s 16 thousand public students have identified intensive learning needs. Among other things, she says the division needs to do more to support these students. Ferguson says Saskatoon Public didn’t centrally monitor whether schools sufficiently support these students in K to Grade 8. She says the division did not specifically estimate future enrollment of students with intensive needs, or analyze trends in the number of them, or changes in the categories of their needs. It also could not show how it determined the number of staff needed to support these students.
