Doug Ford’s government quietly cut over $100 million for protecting school children from COVID-19.
Ford scaled back funding to ‘support the safe re-opening of schools’, leaving local school boards to shoulder extra costs.

Two national awards for our team at the #EECOM2021 conference this weekend: Hilary Inwood @OISEUofT@MT_OISE wins 'Outstanding Post-Secondary Educator in ESE', and Pam Miller of @EcoSchoolsTDSB wins 'Educator of the Year'! Likely why the TDSB/OISE ESE collaboration is going well
When my students don’t grasp a concept or fail at something my first thought is not, “well I’ve done enough for them to get it” but instead “what do I need to do better tomorrow” and that’s how you know @Sflecce does not care or know anything about education
ICYMI: After Peel Public Health said schools in the region will close as of Tuesday, the education minister maintains the government has done enough to keep students safe.

This is a must see for all @tdsb School Councils! "The decline in our student's independent mobility has had a direct effect on the decrease of their self-efficacy & confidence". #ActiveTransportation#Play#PhysicalLiteracy Tx for sharing @GuyFaulkner
If I understand latest memo from @ONeducation, funding provided in 2020-21 for #COVID19Ontario is 1 time only & not provided for 2021-22. Next year’s budget will be a reduction. #COVID19 won’t be fully gone by Sept & we need investment not cuts in #OntEd

@NicholasFerroni 1.7 BILLION. BILLION. Imagine if we took that budget and funded services for our students and their communities. We could have universal broadband. We could have free tutoring. We could have working technology. We could have mental health services. We could do so much more.
