👉Ontario is facing a worsening teacher shortage as retirements rise and student enrolment increases. A Ministry of Education briefing warns the gap between the number of teachers needed and those available will widen by 2027, particularly in French and tech education. Despite government efforts to streamline recruitment, unions argue poor working conditions and lack of support are driving teachers away. Ontario's teacher surplus a decade ago has reversed, with demand outpacing supply. Unions call for better planning and cooperation to address the issue, which they say is already impacting schools across the province.✅ .

👉A recent review by Deloitte, commissioned by Ontario's Ministry of Education, suggests that adjusting school start and end times in Ottawa could help resolve ongoing school bus issues. The review, focusing on the Ottawa Student Transportation Authority (OSTA), aims to address a projected $7 million funding gap. Recommendations include synchronizing school schedules, reducing the number of buses, and extending student bus rides within the one-hour limit. While OSTA accepted most recommendations, it noted that significant changes to school "bell times" would require approval from the school boards. The harmonization of school calendars was the only recommendation rejected.✅ . 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐞- 𝐀𝐭 𝐚 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮!

👉Saskatchewan teachers have voted 55% against the province's latest contract offer, continuing a dispute that has lasted over a year. With 88% of members voting, the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation (STF) emphasized the need for addressing classroom complexity and compensation. The rejected offer, recommended by STF leaders, included an accountability framework, $18 million annually for classroom complexity, a minister’s task force on the issue, a policy on violence-free classrooms, and salary increases over three years. Education Minister Jeremy Cockrill expressed disappointment and promised further steps soon. The STF remains ready to negotiate, threatening renewed job action if talks fail.✅ .

👉Starting September, Ontario will enforce strict cellphone and vaping regulations in schools. Kindergarten to Grade 6 students must keep phones silent and out of sight all day. Grades 7-12 can only use phones outside of class. Violations result in immediate confiscation and parental notification. Education Minister Stephen Lecce aims to refocus on learning by banning social media on school devices and requiring explicit consent for recording. Teachers will assess student distractions on report cards. Lynn Posluns of Women’s Brain Health Initiative supports the move, citing concerns over excessive screen time and its impact on mental health.✅ .

👉Ontario's education minister, Stephen Lecce, declares mandatory inclusion of Black Canadian history in Grades 7, 8, and 10 courses, effective September 2025. Emphasizing that Black history is integral to Canada's narrative, Lecce aims to foster a deeper understanding of the contributions and sacrifices made by Black Canadians. Consultations with historians, educators, and the Black community will shape the curriculum additions. Patrice Barnes, parliamentary assistant to the education minister, champions the change, aspiring to enrich students' appreciation of the nation's diverse heritage. This initiative aligns with other curriculum updates, including a "back to basics" kindergarten curriculum and expanded teachings on historical events like the Holodomor famine and the Holocaust.✅ .
