• Financial Support Services Unit (FSSU) — financial management guidance, templates, and updates for school boards
• National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA) — curriculum and assessment updates

How monitoring works

Each source is checked automatically on a regular schedule. New publications are assessed against your school's profile — type, patron, management sector — to determine relevance. You only see publications that are applicable to your school, with a plain-language impact summary for each one.
