AB 1216: Elementary and secondary education: omnibus.

This bill aims to amend several sections of the education code to improve the eligibility requirements for teachers to teach certain subjects. Currently, teachers need to complete specific coursework or demonstrate subject matter competence to be eligible to teach a subject that is not their current area of certification. The bill would revise this requirement by removing the need for the subject to be one that the teacher is not already certified to teach. Additionally, the bill would clarify the minimum physical education requirements for schools, specifying that the calculation of required minutes should be based on schooldays instead of the number of days. Finally, the bill would correct cross references and references to entities in the education code.
