Manitoba Launches Public Registry of Teachers' Disciplinary Records

The online portal allows users to view certification status and disciplinary actions for educators dating back to 1960.

  • The Manitoba government has introduced a public registry displaying disciplinary records of kindergarten to Grade 12 teachers and school clinicians.
  • The registry includes information on certification status, suspensions, and cancellations but does not yet detail the reasons behind disciplinary actions.
  • Since 1989, 78 educators in Manitoba have had their licenses canceled, with 33 suspensions recorded, five of which were later reinstated.
  • The registry was established under amendments to the Education Administration Act, unanimously passed in 2023 by the legislature.
  • An independent education commissioner, appointed in September 2024, oversees investigations and ensures transparency in the disciplinary process.
