Alberta superintendents will be able to police their own profession if a new bill is passed in the legislature. By September 2022, should the bill pass, the existing College of Alberta School Superintendents (CASS) would have the legal power to investigate its members. If approved, Bill 55, The College of Alberta School Superintendents Act, would make the province the second in Canada to allow superintendents to self-regulate.The Saskatchewan League of Educational Administrators, Directors and Superintendents (LEADS) has had regulatory powers since 1984. The bill would require Alberta superintendents, deputy superintendents and some "teacher leaders" at school board central offices to be regulated members of CASS. They would have to give up their membership with the Alberta Teachers' Association to join.
