In Quebec , there are 9,184 unqualified teachers in the province’s public schools, up from 8,871 in May 2024 and 6,654 in May 2023 .

The province has lowered the bar to getting that designation, but there is little incentive for unqualified’ teachers to become certified.

Quebec is spending millions of dollars to recruit and retain workers, education department says.

“There’s very little advantage from the financial standpoint to be legally qualified,” Harnois said.

Henry is on track to finally get her teaching licence, but says she always wanted to go into teaching.
