    First Nations and Métis Education Aboriginal LanguagesThe First Nations, Métis and Community Education Branch, in collaboration with education partners, is currently developing Cree 10, 20 and 30 curricula. The completion of this initiative will eliminate the need for Cree teachers to continually apply for locally developed course approval. Implementation of Cree 10, 20 and 30 is scheduled for 2006. Western and Northern Canadian Protocol (WNCP): The WNCP Aboriginal Languages website links to provincial and territorial Aboriginal Languages and Cultures websites from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Common Curriculum Framework for Aboriginal Language and Culture Programs, Kindergarten to Grade 12: Western Canadian Protocol for Collaboration in Basic Education is intended to be a support document for schools or regions within the Western provinces and the territories wishing to develop curricula, learning resources or strategies dealing with Aboriginal languages. It is a framework that reflects the universal values and beliefs inherent in Aboriginal cultures. The outcomes provided are to be interpreted and specified by local developers based on the strength of their language, the availability of cultural resources and the expressed language goals of their community.

The purpose of a provincial tracking system is to determine how many students are not in school and who those students are, so that action can be taken to determine why they are not in school and how their needs for education can be met. Translations by the Saskatchewan Indian Cultural College.
