Cross-Curricular Delivery Permissions Process ChangesPELSB has enacted changes to the Cross-Curricular Delivery Permissions (CCDP) request process. All public school districts and charter schools who are using or applying for a CCDP (including SAAP approved) must submit a program narrative once every five years, effective July 1, 2025. Public school districts and charter schools should continue to use the current CCDP request form (available on the Special Permissions page), and ensure that one Program Narrative has been submitted for your district or school as required. Public school districts and charter schools are required to submit one Program Narrative (Section 4) that includes the following:
This updated process will ensure that the teacher is being provided supports to be successful in teaching outside of their licensure field/scope. This change will reduce time spent on writing a program narrative - with submissions only required every five years, rather than annually. If a CCDP has already been submitted for School Year 2025-2026 without the Program Narrative, the school district or charter school will be contacted by PELSB's Licensure Permission Specialist via email to complete the Program Narrative. |
