Our Equity Statement
The Western Québec School Board is committed to building an educational community with the common purpose to realize the potential of all our students by cultivating a strong corps of support, professional,  teaching and administrative excellence.  We therefore encourage applications from Indigenous people, as well as from other racialized people groups, persons living with a disability, people of religious faith, and gender minorities.  

As an organization, we strive to hire individuals who reflect the communities we serve, and who embody and practice a love of life-long learning, teamwork, and the highest professional ethics.  Our efforts to achieve a diverse workforce that contributes to a culturally safe working environment include establishing proactive employment practices to address systemic barriers and removing obstacles to hiring and retaining qualified people. 

Security Background Check – Since our employees work directly with children and teenagers, all applicants need to provide a recent Security Background Check before their hiring. There are limits to the assistance our school board can provide to this regard. Contact your local police service for more information.
