School students’ education in Quebec is taking a hit because incompetent teachers are not being weeded out, according to a note published Aug. 24 by the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI) public policy think tank.
Data from the MEI reveals that within the last five years, four teachers out of 111,000 were fired due to incompetence within Quebec school boards. This accounts for a minuscule 0.0036 percent of the province’s teaching workforce.
