Testing the climate of our school’s culture
In December 2022, SPH conducted a survey to gauge how people felt about being part of our school. The questions asked, among other things, how supported people felt, was the school atmosphere welcoming, and if SPH does a good job educating its staff and faculty about creating inclusive workplaces and classrooms. The results showed a positive trend compared to the last survey in 2020 and since we launched our Strategic Plan for Antiracism in 2021.
