Come learn, share and grow with us!
Teachers
North Vancouver School District is not only "the natural place to learn," it's also the natural place to work. We provide world-class instruction and a rich diversity of engaging programs to inspire success for every student and bring communities together to learn, share, and grow. We are noted for our progressive approach to instruction, our firm belief in Inclusive Education, advocacy for Indigenous Learning and emphasis on social-emotional learning. Our 25 elementary and 7 secondary schools provide a safe, culturally diverse and nurturing environment for approximately 16,000 students.

- Mentorship – In collaboration with the NVTA, we provide a strong mentorship program where both the mentor and mentee gain from the experience. Mentorship provides a voluntary opportunity for teachers to enhance their practice in a safe, confidential and learning-focused relationship. This is accomplished with an experienced colleague in a completely non-evaluative, non-remedial process based on trust of all those involved. The process will empower all participants in their own professional growth through constructive feedback and build leadership capacity within schools and across the District.
