Serving on Council

Who serves on Council?

The College Council is the governing body of the Ontario College of Teachers. College members elect 23 of the 37 Council members.

Elected members serve three-year terms and are elected from the English, French, Catholic, public, elementary and secondary school systems in all regions of the province.

Principals and vice-principals, supervisory officers, private schools and faculties of education elect Council members to four of the 23 positions.

The provincial government appoints the remaining 14 members of Council from parents, various professions and the general public.
