In Ontario, school boards are required to implement policies and procedures related to concussion awareness, prevention, identification, management, tracking and training.  The updated Concussion Protocol, as outlined in the Ontario Physical Activity Safety Standards in Education (OPASSE), serves as the minimum standard for school-based concussion risk management practices for Ontario school boards.
