History
The Unit was formed within the Policy and Programs Branch, Strategic Planning and Elementary/Secondary Programs Division, in 2003. It drew personnel from the existing (and continuing) Policy Analysis Unit and Policy Information and Research Units.
In 2008 the unit was split into two separate teams, within the Policy and Programs Branch of the Instruction and Leadership Development Division.
In 2010 the two units were renamed to the Safe Schools Unit and the Healthy Schools and Student Well-Being Unit. No changes of personnel took place. These new units were within the Leadership Development Branch of the Instruction and Leadership Development Division.
In 2014 both units were within the Safe Schools and Student Well-Being Branch, Leadership and Learning Environment Division. The Healthy Schools and Student Well-Being Unit was renamed the Healthy Schools Unit.
In 2018, the Safe and Healthy Schools Branch was created in the new Indigenous Education and Well Being Division. The Units continued within this branch.
