Surrey School District Hires 40 Assistants, But Is It Enough?
Description
The Surrey school district is addressing staffing cuts from last year by hiring forty new education assistants, despite a drop in student enrollment and a rise in special education needs. However, parents and the union argue that this is not enough, as staffing levels are still down and the current assistant-to-student ratio is far from ideal, leading to overworked assistants and unmet student needs. The district acknowledges the hiring doesnt fully restore past levels but is working within provincial funding limits and expanding other support programs.
