What the minister needs to understand is, the need is now; it’s not a year from now, when the new school is finally built. Every time a board is forced to change their delivery models because of a lack of funding, it compounds the stress that our parents and teachers and students are facing. Some 70% of teachers responding to a CBC News survey said that physical distancing between students was not happening. A third of them said that they were considering changing professions or retiring. Yet as cases are going up, there’s a real sense out there that the minister is already running a victory lap on his plan and not seeing the reality of what’s happening on the ground. At committee this week, he couldn’t tell us if his ministry was even evaluating these models or the quality of education our children are getting. So before they hang the “mission accomplished” sign up, will the minister roll up his sleeves and start to address these gaps in his plan?
