Are teachers who only provide primary language support to ELs reported on the Language Census?
No. There is no legal requirement for the California Department of Education to collect information on teachers who provide primary language support. The only staff that are reported as providing primary language support are bilingual paraprofessionals. If teachers who provide primary language support also provide ELD and/or SDAIE, they are only to be counted in Part 5B as providing ELD and/or SDAIE.
