MOTION 13-17(5): TRAINING FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION WORKERS

Mr. Speaker, I give notice that on Wednesday, March 5, 2014, I will move the following motion: now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Nahendeh, that the Department of Education, Culture and Employment be required to ensure that there is at least one fully trained early childhood educator worker for every junior kindergarten group before the program is implemented; and further, that early childhood education workers be recognized as educational professionals and paid wages accordingly; and furthermore, that Aurora College immediately implements a training program that graduates fully qualified early childhood education workers who meet federal standards; and furthermore, that the Government of the Northwest Territories provides a comprehensive response to this motion within 90 days.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. Item 16, notices of motion for first reading of bills. The honourable Premier, Mr. McLeod.
