You also maintain regular dialogue with parents and sometimes with authorities.

To develop learning in the after-school program, you need to be comfortable using digital tools and equipment such as tablets, interactive programs, and apps. Your good planning skills and solution-focused approach are important so you can actively connect after-school activities to the LGR22 curriculum.

What We Offer We are proud to offer you professional development through after-school program improvement initiatives and networks where you can share experiences with colleagues throughout the city.
