Position Paper on the Roles and Responsibilities of Teacher Assistants Within an Inclusive Education System
Over the past two decades New Brunswick has come to be seen internationally as a forerunner in building an inclusive public education system. Since the passage of Bill 85 in 1986, a cornerstone of its education policy has been the unconditional acceptance of all children into regular classes and the life of the school. Since then, one of the most valuable supports made available to schools has been the teacher assistant.
Position Statement on Inclusive Education
Purpose: To ensure that New Brunswick’s education system and schools reflect and prepare students for life in inclusive communities.

With over 200 pages of information on subjects that reach across the lifespan, from Early Learning and Child Care to Will and Estate Planning, Taking the Journey was developed by families, for families, in order to share information on service systems, how they work and how you can help them be more effective in helping your child have the best chances at success.
