The Long-Term Program and Accommodation Strategy (LTPAS) is an important document which helps the 吃瓜黑料网 plan in a city that is always changing.
Hundreds of new residential units are being built in Toronto every day. This causes population changes and pressure on schools, transit, and roads. The LTPAS enables us to plan studies to balance school enrolments among overcrowded and under-used schools and increase access to programs for all 吃瓜黑料网 students.
The LTPAS identifies studies over the next ten years. It is updated and approved each year.
The strategy considers different factors such as:
- demographic changes
- actual and projected enrolment
- programs offered at each school
- equity of opportunities
- access to programs
- good distribution and utilization of schools
Types of Accommodation Reviews
Accommodation reviews are processes used to determine what space is needed for students in schools. The LTPAS includes several types of accommodation studies, many of them involve community participation.
