Researchers note a teacher should be compared to those of other high stress jobs, such as air-traffic controllers, firefighters, or pilots. Growing stress is pushing teachers out of the profession.

Ten thousand @NSTeachersUnion members believe this, not only for students but also for ourselves. Trans rights impact our union siblings, other colleagues in our workplaces & our students & their families. If they have no justice, then justice is broken for us all. #nsed #nspoli

Hearing of a Zach Heckler today. Amen to the “Collective Agreement” brother or sister! Never stop until your #CharterRights are restored. Hold #NSlibs accountable. Don’t let them walk easily back into your lives / workplace after their abuse. #nspoli #NSTU #CRLPD

BREAKING: #nsed public schools offer wide ranging programming & are poised after curriculum review & inclusion report to further diversify supports & options. The approach advocated by @AIMS_CA has negatively impacted public education in UK & USA. /1

Today I learned that there are 19 states that permit corporal punishment, i.e., child abuse.

I remember a teacher telling me: “When you’re surrounded by superstars… it makes you want to be better than you are.” That’s the power of collaboration -- the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.

Let’s hope now that @NSTeachersUnion has new leadership that @nseducation @NSLiberal are willing to adopt this approach re: #nsed policy:

Stop implementing failed approaches in Ontario, BC, Scotland & NB, start learning from successes in AB, Finland, etc. #nspoli

Also, still a year to decide right? Watch for the retirements and returns to classroom. Especially after the first yr of disorder, divide and distract. #GrievanceTime #Managers #NSTU #nslab #BaitAndSwitch Libs.

⁦.@AvisGlaze⁩ was tapped to provide direction on school reform in Scotland in 2016 & by ⁦@StephenMcNeil⁩ for ⁦@nseducation⁩ in 2018.

After her ideas eroded Ontario public education, now the Scottish fallout. #nsed #nspoli #nslab /1 https://t.co/gklP4rzQDl

[Dan O'Toole @dangotoole]

Just to be clear, because I want to have it straight, @realDonaldTrump opened a ‘university’ in which people paid, and then he had to settle a class action lawsuit for 25 million for ripping them off. @KingJames opened a free school, in which students pay nothing. Ok. Got it.

[Paul Wozney @withwozney]

How do @zachchurchill @NSLiberal propose that the tension arising between two classes of specialists over widening gaps in pay, work conditions, etc, stands to enhance services to students who rely on them for effective #inclusion in classrooms? #nsed #nspoli #nslab

[Paul Wozney @withwozney]

This is why creating a precarious, year to year, non-NSTU population of SLP & school psych specialists stands to erode services for vulnerable students under @nseducation. #nspoli #nsed #nslab
