The transition into the Ontario public education system can be challenging for new teachers, particularly those new to the province's policies, curriculum expectations, and classroom management standards. To support these educators, PD Staff in collaboration with CMS and AIDE departments, have collaborated in the development and implementation of a 25-hour Mini-Course and a 5-hour Workshop designed to equip teachers with foundational knowledge and skills for success in Ontario classrooms.

The Mini-Course will:

* Provide new teachers with a clear understanding of classroom management strategies within the Ontario context.
* Familiarize educators with curriculum priorities in Ontario and how they align with provincial standards.
* Ensure teachers are aware of their roles, responsibilities, and rights within the public education system.
* Offer a structured opportunity for networking and professional development among teachers new to the system.
