Stats Canada (2013) reports Canada expects to receive 334,000 new immigrants each year over the next 20 years. One third of these are expected to be children and youth.  Parents and teachers share a common goal to create a positive and successful learning experience for all children.  How can we help immigrant children and parents to become our partners in learning with the school?  This webinar will provide ideas on how your school staff can create a comprehensive plan to ensure immigrant students and their families are welcomed and included into the school community.  Resources and research on culturally competent practices will also be included in this fast-paced hour long presentation.
