Call to Action!
We’re putting data to work to fulfill the FLS/FML teaching requirements across Canada

The CSBA and the FNCSF, in collaboration with the CASSA, the RNDGE and the CLE, have teamed up to collaborate and develop a sustainable and accessible pan-Canadian data infrastructure to collect and house accurate, standardized data that can be used to address the Francophone and French second language teacher shortage and enhance their recruitment, mobility and retention.
The Project
- Development of a pan-Canadian data infrastructure to support teacher recruitment and retention in minority French language schools and French second language programs.
- [ The Project ]
School systems will benefit from the positive impacts resulting from this project:
- aid in teacher recruitment, immigration, certification and mobility,
- provide opportunity for benchmarking and comparative analysis of data,
- support access to federal funding and programming,
- develop a pool of qualified teachers who understand the needs of Francophone and second language learners.
Why should this project matter to school trustees?
