Elementary Teacher Education - YNTEP
Since its inception in 1989, the Yukon Native Teacher Education Program (YNTEP) has supported a vision for change in Yukon schools collectively voiced by First Nation Chiefs and Elders, community members, educators, and politicians across the Yukon. YNTEP is committed to nurturing educational practices that support reconciliation and decolonization.
YNTEP expects its graduates to lead for change, providing a curriculum of consequence as a foundation for a brighter future for all Yukon communities. They have experience enacting innovative and responsive pedagogies, including equitable assessment and evaluation; teaching in cross-cultural settings, with an emphasis on Yukon First Nation history and culture; teaching for multiple literacies; and responding with multiple levels of intervention to learning, behavioural, and health challenges in schools.
Values
YNTEP takes up critical, culturally responsive and anti-oppressive teaching practices; development of culturally appropriate curricula; and building capacity for intercultural understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. The program endeavours to attract teacher candidates from diverse backgrounds and representative of Yukon’s demographics.
