Leslie Telfer GM March
Leslie Telfer, Superintendent of Education, Brant, Haldimand, Norfolk Catholic District School Board, spoke on Literacy Trends in Brant. She was clear that children need the Four C’s of Education; critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity. Simple knowledge is easily available through technology. Children must be able to understand, evaluate, and apply knowledge to succeed.
