While some schools have already integrated circus into their curriculum or extracurricular activities, these initiatives remain limited or insufficiently coordinated, and lack shared tools to ensure consistency and continuity across pathways.  <br\/><br\/>Circus Education seeks to address this need by fostering collaboration between circus schools and the school system, supporting teacher training, sharing resources, and strengthening connections between the education and cultural sectors. The initiative aims to move beyond siloed approaches to build a collective, complementary, and sustainable vision for circus arts education in Quebec.  <br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n<h2
