Three new Indigenous languages added to provincial curriculum – Prince Albert Daily Herald

Starting next year, three more Indigenous language courses will be available for school divisions across the province.

On Tuesday, the Ministry of Education announced it would make courses in Dene, Nakawe and Michif at the 10, 20 and 30 levels available for the 2019-20 school year.

The courses were previously available through locally-developed courses, put together by school divisions. Other school divisions could use the courses, but they had to apply for the ability to teach them. Now that the courses have provincial status, they can be taught by school divisions and First

Nations authorities without them having to first apply for permission.
High school courses in Cree (nehiwawewin) are already offered in Saskatchewan.
