The CÉF reveals its reorganization of its Student Services

Regina, Monday, August 18, 2014 - Today, the Conseil des écoles fransaskoises (CÉF) is revealing its restructuring of its Educational Services.

The result of a review that takes into consideration intervention approaches adapted to the context of an organizational overhaul, the reorganization of Student Services will allow for the encouragement of student success and mentoring by workers in schools.

"Firstly, it aims to influence, in a constructive manner, the development of work processes, while mobilizing the teams in the school setting.
