Provinces warn of 'critical' teacher surplus
Nova Scotia and Ontario have too many English, social studies
teachers while there aren't enough in math, French

Education faculties should put out the word that there is an
oversupply of public-school teachers in some parts of Canada and
students hoping to land a dream job teaching English or social
studies in urban areas should "give their head a shake," says
the president of the Canadian Teachers Federation. Emily Noble's warning comes after a new Nova Scotia report
detailed a "critical" overabundance of teacher graduates in the
province and the Ontario College of Teachers published an
article in the current issue of its in-house magazine about a
dire situation in the province, which is expected to continue
for years. "If you're talking pure numbers, in terms of graduates out of
teachers college and positions available, the numbers may lend
themselves to an oversupply nationally," Noble said in an
interview. "However, there are significant areas where there is
a lack of teachers." Despite surpluses in some parts of the country, there is still a
general shortage of teachers for French, technology, science and
math, she said. Teachers also remain in short supply in rural
and northern areas, as well as in aboriginal communities.
