Recommended ban on extra-curriculars remains

by SGNews Staff
 
The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario, while welcoming positive discussions with the provincial government, is awaiting concrete actions before lifting its advisory to its members on voluntary and extra-curricular activity.
 

“While we have experienced a marked and welcome change in the Wynne government’s approach to addressing its relationship with teachers, this has yet to translate into real change,”

said ETFO President Sam Hammond. "In these circumstances, ETFO's advice regarding voluntary/extracurricular activities remains unchanged."
 
"Beyond the initial commitments made by the government team to listen, engage in positive dialogue and explore a more inclusive process for future bargaining rounds, it is going to take real actions to regain the confidence of members in light of the very flawed process during 2012 that resulted in the loss of members' fundamental democratic rights."
 
"ETFO remains committed to working with the government to find meaningful ways to address the current issues facing the education sector," he added. "We look forward to responses from the government team that address the key issues that ETFO has brought to the table on behalf of members."
