Update #1:
NEW requirement - Mental Health Check (to be included in your PRC/VSS search)
From our website:
A teacher candidate who obtains a PRC/VSS from a police jurisdiction in the province must ensure that the document confirms that the Vulnerable Sector's database (Pardoned Sex Offender database) has been searched and cleared. Also ensure that your police service includes a check under the Mental Health Act (MHA).
Recently, two of our largest partnership boards, the Toronto District School Board and the York Region District School Board, have notified us that they now require the police/vulnerable sector check to also include the Mental Health Act as part of the check. Many police services already do include this MHA in the check (ie: York Police), but others may not unless specifically requested. Be sure to ask when you go to your police detachment location.
We recommend that all teacher candidates, regardless of which partnership board is selected for placement, ensure that their police service include the MHA check. This is in the event that other boards change their policy and require the MHA check and to ensure that you have the correct documentation for September 2nd, 2014.
Update #2:
CHANGE to instruction to submit your obtained documents (PRC/VSS with MHA and 1 Step TB Skin test results).
From our website:
OR
Originally, we had requested that all B.Ed students arrange to supply the Education Administration Office with a photocopy of all of their PRC/VSS with MHA and 1 Step TB Skin Tests results.
THIS HAS CHANGED EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
The above documentation (PRC/VSS with MHA and 1 Step TB Skin Tests results) must be received in separate sealed envelopes by your Faculty Advisor (and course instructor) for EDUC 4499, on the first day of class. Failure to comply may result in the withdrawal of an Offer of Admission.
