SACSC Resources
Toward a Safe and Caring Teaching Profession
This Program area focuses on supporting teachers by training curriculum leaders and workshop facilitators. Local facilitators can deliver curriculum development workshops at the school or district levels.
Curriculum Resource Development Workshops
SACSC offers a number of professional development opportunities designed to help teachers and other staff members implement SACS resources, reflect on teaching practice and learn strategies that promote positive social behaviours and attitudes. The workshops, tailored to the needs of the staff, are intended to aid implementation through collaborative team processes and help teachers integrate SACSC principles into the Alberta curriculum. The inservices for the curriculum resources are designed to help teachers foster in students the skills and attitudes needed to develop self-esteem, respect diversity, avoid prejudice, manage anger, deal with bullying and work cooperatively to resolve conflict. The curriculum resources fully integrate violence prevention and character education into a government-mandated curriculum in all subjects and grades. Advanced training prepares lead teachers to deliver the workshops.
For information on the other SACSC workshops, or for a schedule of upcoming workshops, please visit the Workshops page.
The Society is continuously revising the website to include more resources and to offer additional resources to download free of charge, so keep checking in to see what's new to the SACSC resources pages!
