Overview:
The New Brunswick School Counsellor Framework outlines a comprehensive approach for school counsellors, focusing on student support in mental health, academics, social-emotional learning, and career-connected growth. Using the SAIL model (Support, Advocate, Intervene, Lead), counsellors aim to create inclusive, trauma-informed environments that foster well-being and learning. Key elements include Universal Design for Learning, Positive Behaviour Intervention Supports, and Response to Intervention frameworks, ensuring that all students’ diverse needs are met effectively.
