I’m trying to help a student in the College of Education here locate stats on visible minority / immigrant teachers or educators in SK.
I’ve already contacted the Ministry of Education, the SK Teachers Federation, and the SK Professional Teachers Regulatory Board to no avail.
Are there any StatCan products that might contain this information?
Answer
I’ve located the following CANSIM tables pertaining to teachers and educators. 7 of them filter by province, but they do not account for minority or ethnicity: http://www5.statcan.gc.ca/cansim/a33?RT=TABLE&themeID=1831&spMode=tables&lang=eng
We have few CANSIM tables (477-0109, 477-0108, 477-0107) with the number of full-time or part-time public elementary and secondary educators by provinces (the client can go in Add/Remove data tab to select the province) but we do not have the immigration status variable in that survey.
We also have a CANSIM table 477-0017 with the number of full-time teaching staff at Canadian universities by rank, sex, Canada and Provinces (the client can go in Add/Remove data tab to select the province) up-to 2010-2011 but again we do not have the immigration status. 2010-11 is the last year we have although the UCASS survey is back and some data will be disseminate this year.
For this survey (UCASS: University and Colleges academic staff survey) you may be interested by the variable “Country of Citizenship at Time of Appointment.
Please follow the link to get more information about ESES (Elementary-Secondary Education survey) and this other link to UCASS (University and Colleges academic staff survey).”
