Linguistic inclusivity in the classroom contributes to inclusive societies. When the language of instruction is the student's mother tongue, it can help bridge a potential gap between languages spoken at home and at school. This approach provides a more inclusive form of education as it enables students to settle into the learning environment in a language familiar to them, which also contributes to the academic achievement and chances later in life. 2, record 1, English, - linguistic%20inclusivity

Cultural discontinuity refers to the lack of cohesion between two or more cultures. Upon entry into school, differences in the functional use of language among culturally and linguistically diverse children have been found to account for the discontinuity they experience. Because children come to school socialized to language in culture-specific ways, the discourse structure and communication styles used by many children from culturally and linguistically diverse populations is incongruent with that of the teacher's style of interaction. This discontinuity between home and school language socialization patterns can have a negative impact on academic achievement. 1, record 2, English, - cultural%20discontinuity

Dans l'état actuel de la recherche, on dit généralement qu'il y a acculturation quand la culture du groupe auquel le groupe de référence est confronté est survalorisé, ou quand celle-ci est techniquement supérieure, ou encore quand le groupe de référence est nettement minoritaire. Les anthropologues étudient parallèlement le phénomène de déperdition de culture (déculturation) ou celui de sa transformation (transculturation), qui sont les corollaires de l'acculturation. 3, record 3, French, - acculturation

Much of the drop in the target student population can be attributed to non-transmission of the language at home. With a language continuity index of about 70% since 1971, the target student population is expected to drop even more sharply. The school definitely plays a role in this transmission and, clearly, measures that ensure the transmission of French must continue to be implemented, because the right to instruction in French will be lost if French is no longer used as a mother tongue by the target student population or as a language of instruction. 5, record 19, English, - language%20continuity%20index

Position information collected includes the Position number, title, group and level, exclusion indicator, language requirements, unit, reporting relationship(supervisor's position number and title). Employee information includes the Public service start date, birthdate, home address and telephone number, employee type(full-time, part-time, etc.) position title and number, location and telephone number, bilingual capability, employment history, career aspirations, mobility, training and development history(as well as proposed), date of last performance appraisal(as well as a BF for the next due appraisal). The system also keeps track of start/end dates for acting, secondment and assignment situations with an active BF system. Staffing action/adjustment module keeps track of areas which, in the opinion of the manager, will require some action to ensure that operational demands are met; this includes vacancies which are likely to occur due to long-term disability leave, maternity leave, care and nurturing leave, extended vacation leave and any other situation which will require attention. The Training and Development module records available courses, maintains a list of employees identified for each course through the appraisal process, as well as the status of this training(proposed, approved, completed). 1, record 20, English, - Human%20Resources%20Planning%20Information%20Program
