Ontario's Calandra: School Boards Under Provincial Supervision

Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description

Ontarios Education Minister, Paul Calandra, maintains provincial supervision over eight school boards, including Toronto and Peel Region, affecting over 750,000 students. The move aims to address mismanagement issues and redirect funds to classrooms. However, parent groups, unions, and disability advocates express concerns about the impact on students, particularly those with special needs. Premier Doug Ford is open to reforms but not scrapping trustees. Calandra will soon propose reform ideas, while school board leaders hope for local input and a move away from permanent takeover.
