It is more important than ever that we work to establish inclusive and safe communities and schools for 2SLGBTQ+ students, educators and parents. Visit this @egalecanada site for great resources and tools to combat hate. #NoSpaceForHate #onpoli

The Minister of Education might want to change the channel, but the truth is that banning cell phones in #onted does absolutely nothing to address the chronic underfunding of our schools! Students, families, educators, and ed workers deserve more. #onpoli

This unprecedented time calls for alternative thinking. It is however important to remember that not all have access to the internet. OPINION "The worst part about Ontario’s ‘Learn at home’ plan is that it excludes students who need it most" #OntEd

Once again we have no idea why Ford is finger-pointing at teachers. ETFO’s position on in-person learning remains unchanged! As educators and parents, we firmly believe that in-person instruction in schools provides the best experience for quality learning for students. #onpoli

MEDIA RELEASE: ETFO filed unfair labour practice complaint against the government over its refusal to bargain in good faith. The union cites imposition of a new policy on early reading screening (PPM 168) as an overreach of #onted talks. Read #onpoli

We all want to see schools 🏫 reopen this September and that’s only viable with funding. It’s absolutely time @Sflecce acts to inject funding, new money, for supports and safety measures in #onted . Tell the Ford govt to not put students and educators at risk #onpoli

When you move March Break to April for education workers, students and families who well deserve a break, but keep your scheduled time off. Tell us again that you’re for the people. Is that all the people? Or just some of the people?
