With this in mind, please read the below very carefully.
Completing Your Placement in Simcoe County District School Board?If we do not have your original PRC/VSS documentation (and the requested photocopy for our office files) by March 1st, 2018 - you may not be permitted to head out to your SCDSB placement.

Completing Your Placement in Any Other School Board?If we do not have the requested photocopy of your PRC/VSS documentation for our office files by March 15th, 2018  - the Faculty of Education may notify your requested school board to cancel your placement. It is also your responsibility to satisfy any specific instruction required of your school board, for submitting your documentation prior to the beginning of placement. 

If you know now, that you will have issue meeting the above deadline for documentation submission, please contact the Education Administration Office immediately.

Winter 2018 Placement Release:
The Faculty of Education has determined the date in which we will release Winter 2018 confirmed placement details.
On Thursday March 1st, 2018 at 10:30am we will circulate an email providing instruction on where to login to view your Winter 2018 placement details.

Some of you may not have a confirmed placement at the time of release.The Faculty of Education is working closely with our board partners on a daily basis, for any updates.  As soon as new information is received, the Portal will be updated and impacted students will be notified. If you happen to be one of the handful of students waiting, check the portal daily.

It is very important to note that what you see as your confirmed placement when you login to the Education Portal - MUST - be validated in-person, at a table that will be set up in the Heritage Place hall way, the same day.

The table will be set up for all 1 Year B.Ed and Year 2 (of 2 Year B.Ed) students to verify their placement details, between 10:30am and 12:30pm.

In-person verification of confirmed placement details must be done, before contacting your host teacher. This is a requirement put in place to ensure that there are no errors in our online database and our department's internal records.

Thank you in advance for your co-operation.
