Teachers in formal and informal leadership roles have the ability to strengthen our school communities by supporting all stakeholders in our students’ education. Support can be in the form of innovative teaching methods, school-level leadership, and building community connections.
Teacher Leadership Part 2 will allow you to refine your leadership skills while gaining a strong understanding of theory and practical leadership applications.

• mentor new teachers and teachers in new roles
• explore awards and grants for teacher leaders

Application Requirements
1) OCT Membership showing completion of Part 1
2) CONFIRMATION OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE FORM
Signed by a Supervisory Official* from your Board confirming that you have one year (194 days) of teaching experience since becoming a certified teacher.
* The Ontario College of Teachers defines “Supervisory Official” as the Superintendent or Assistant Superintendent of the school board for a teacher employed by a Board of Education. A principal or headmaster is not recognized in this capacity. For a teacher employed by a private school, the “supervisory official” is the Ministry of Education official (Education Officer) appointed to your school. For overseas experience the appropriate Supervisory Official is the person your Principal reports to.
**Please note that if you have an existing Part 2, Part 3 (Specialist), or Honour Specialist qualification on your OCT record you are not required to submit a form for a Part 2 course. A new form is always required for Part 3 (Specialist).
