An additional 40 instructional resource teachers were also hired to support students this school year.
The Department of Education issued a statement late last week stating that student assistant hours are allocated to schools according to students’ needs. The department, through a student support team which includes the parents, assesses the needs of a student to determine the appropriate types of resources and support required for a student for the school year. This may include supports from a student assistant, itinerant teacher, instructional resource teacher, or teaching and learning assistant in the classroom. For the 2024-25 school year the Department of Education has allocated an additional 160 full time equivalent student assistant positions in the public education system. The hiring process for these additional student assistant positions throughout the province began this past spring and continues as the new school year is underway. An additional 40 instructional resource teachers were also hired to support students this school year.
