@PaulCalandra you have not spoken to us. Why? We at CPIC have not heard from you when we have requested to speak with you. We are the voice of #parents at the TCDSB. We know #Education. We know what OUR #children need. We know you have a mandate that does not serve #students.

Better access for parents means better outcomes for students. Our government is requiring school boards to establish Student and Family Support Offices to give families clear answers and timely solutions when it comes to their child’s education. news.ontario.ca/en/release/100…

@ETFOeducators @ETFOpresident This also needs to include Parent Involvement Committees & Parent Councils. #Parents who #volunteer on the front lines are a wealth of Info & know what's happening on the ground. Yet we are systematically being left out of the conversation. #education #ontario

@fordnation so you are spending more tax payers money on what? Just increase the schools block budgets so they are adequately funded to buy and maintain supplies for the schools. This makes zero fiscally responsible sense. #Education #Ontario

Ontario teachers don’t need special credit cards. They need a government that properly funds schools! #OSSTF President @marthahradowy spoke with The Trillium this week about the Premier’s comments on giving teachers “purchase cards” to buy supplies, and how it is unclear whether

@TinaYazdani Parent Councils are now and have been for years filling the gaps with fundraising because the @fordnation government #underfunding leaves our schools with inadequate budgets. Yet @PaulCalandra wants to pay supervisors who know nothing about #education $350k a year.

Ontario’s education minister expects the supervisors he has appointed at various school boards to bill $350,000 each per year, money which will come from the coffers of the local boards. globalnews.ca/news/11510635/…

@PaulCalandra @fordnation appropriate amount? Thats shameful! And what are these supervisors doing? #Parents have been shut out, no block budget reports to CPIC/CSPC, EQAO reports suppressed, no more live streaming of #CPIC & #SEAC meetings. #hypocrites #Education #Ontario

New today: Ontario’s education minister says he’s “not embarrassed” that school boards are being forced to pay $350k annually to the supervisors he appointed. Paul Calandra calls it an “appropriate amount of money” for them to limit school board spending. Watch our exchange:

NEW: the Ford government’s appointed school supervisors can spend up to $350,000/year, according to the education minister. That money will come from school board budgets, not the ministry of education. To compare: the TDSB’s 22 trustees made just over $550,000 last year.

This is unacceptable @PaulCalandra @fordnation. CPIC has a right to engage parents. Why can we not have open and transparent meetings broadcasted to our parents??? Is there something you dont want #parents to know??? #Ontario #Education @TinaYazdani @ColinDMello

Ontario’s education minister said he banned livestreams of school board meetings to “bring down the temperature.” Critics fired back, telling him to “fund the system” if he wants to cool things down. Paul Calandra’s now “taking another look” at the ban after parent backlash.

“The judges were very clear this is a significant decision. They wanted to take their time because it impacts all ONT Boards. There's board #overreach & misinterpretation of the Education Act by a number of boards of education. #Boards pay attention & Ministry of #Education."

#UNDERFUNDING by @fordnation = #specialeducation gutted, #parentcouncils raising money for basic needs in schools, school renovations on hold, programs/resources torched, overcrowded classrooms, #children suffering. @PaulCalandra #parents are stupid. We know the plan. #Ontario

When class sizes grow, individual attention shrinks. Students become numbers instead of names, and teachers are stretched thin trying to do the impossible. #abed #onted #cdned #edchat

Children with special needs are being denied services in #OntEd because Doug Ford has cut education funing and refuses to update the aprcial education funding model to reflect current needs. Kids are suffering. thewhig.com/news/kingston-…

@Freire1Pb @CPICToronto @OntAutism Teacher’s unions need to speak out about the future without locally elected trustees - but they aren’t.

Lecce funded education below the rate of inflation by $6.35B. Almost 20,000 Ontario students couldn’t attend school last year due to lack of special education supports. @OntAutism tells us situation will worsen without school trustees.

Trumpeter Ford's authoritarian alleged table of contents. Fund public healthcare like Lecce funded education below the rate of inflation by $6.35B leaving children in overcrowded classrooms, classrooms without teachers, boards without trustees and schools literally falling apart.
