Making Sense (FPSE ESL Caucus Report)

May 22, 2013
At the 2012 Federation of Post-Secondary Educators FPSE Annual General Meeting, delegates discussed the urgent need for reform and renewal within BC’s network of English as a Second Language (ESL) programs delivered at public and private post-secondary institutions.

The delegates recommended that an ESL Caucus, comprised of representatives from concerned locals and allies, be tasked with recommending strategies and an action plan for securing the future of ESL education as an integral part of post-secondary education in BC. This report provides an overview of the current state of ESL in BC and proposes recommendations for both FPSE and its Locals.
