The provincial government is unveiling a new health and physical education curriculum at the elementary level with the start of a new school year less than two weeks away.
The revised curriculum puts a focus on physical activity, skill development and mental health.
Issues of bullying, cannabis, concussions and online safety are covered.
The discussion of gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation won’t take place until the later half of grade 8.
The province says the new curriculum relates to the everyday experiences of students.
