Indigenous students are students who identify as members of the Indigenous peoples of Canada, including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. Indigenous students attend public schools across the country and bring diverse cultures, languages, histories, and knowledge traditions into the classroom. At the same time, many Indigenous families continue to experience the long-term impacts of colonial policies that disrupted communities and education systems, including the legacy documented by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada. In education today, supporting Indigenous students involves recognising these histories while ensuring schools are culturally respectful, inclusive, and responsive to Indigenous identities and knowledge. This can include honouring Indigenous perspectives in curriculum, building relationships with Indigenous communities, and ensuring that Indigenous students experience school as a place of belonging, dignity, and opportunity.
