Classroom Assistant

Guide to implementing new classroom support services for 5-year-old preschool and elementary school (French Version)

What is the role of the Classroom Assistant?

The Classroom Assistant pilot project began this school year.  One hundred establishments were chosen by Quebec’s Ministry of Education (MEQ) to participate in this experimental project. Link for the guide.

The Centrale des syndicats du Québec (CSQ), the Fédération du personnel de soutien scolaire (FPSS-CSQ) and two other school-sector federations affiliated with the CSQ have from the beginning been committed to this MEQ project, especially when it comes to respecting task boundaries and better defining the role of the Classroom Assistant.
