ENGLISH SCHOOLS IN QUÉBEC

The Central Quebec School Board (CQSB), with its 18 schools and adult education and vocational training centres, offers English-language education in the Greater Quebec, Mauricie, Saguenay, Thetford Mines and Northern Québec regions. The CQSB is proud to derive many benefits from its particularly small student population and class size including an enriched total experience for all students. The CQSB provides an environment where students and staff have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships and where the emphasis is on individual growth and development.

TEACHER INDUCTION

The CQSB takes great pride in its Teacher Induction Program. A variety of information is provided, and a range of topics are covered in an engaging, hands-on format to ensure new teachers have the knowledge and resources needed to begin the school year. Newly hired teachers will have the opportunity to begin their induction by attending a four-day induction session. Throughout the school year, board consultants continue to provide ongoing support to teachers.
