Description

Across Alberta and British Columbia, classrooms are increasingly led by uncertified educators as school districts scramble to fill teaching vacancies, relying on temporary permits known as letters of authority. While many in Alberta are students nearing certification, BC reports roughly 20% of teaching roles filled by uncertified staff—figures shrouded in secrecy. Teacher unions warn this trend threatens educational quality and demand these measures remain temporary, calling for transparent reporting on staffing gaps to guide policy and protect student learning.
