We’ve gone from two meters to one meter of physical distancing in classrooms to... “in your classrooms your desks are going to be as far apart as your teacher can make them”! I don’t know of any medical expert who has recommended this approach!! @ETFOeducators @CTFFCE #onted

As elementary students return to school, it’s important they know how to protect themselves. Likewise, how their parents can protect their families. So have a watch & share this video to help #KeepKidsSafe.

Today HPEDSB released a response to our statement. We stand behind our statement & our concern for student safety. The board’s press release is intentionally misleading. Our concerns aren’t about when students CAN’T wear masks but rather when they REFUSE #studentsfirst #OSSTF

Ford and Lecce claim Ontario's school reopening plan is the "safest and most cautious" in Canada. Chief Coroner, Dr. David Hyer stressed the need for, "proper physical distancing." How can this be if 2 M physical distancing is NOT mandated in Ford's plan? #osstf #onted #onpoli

A #SafeSeptember requires funded sick leave for parents & guardians. ALL families need to be assured that while they look after their child/dependent, their paycheque remains the same. Tell Ford his plan falls short by visiting 👉 hereforstudents.ca/a-safe-re… #osstf #onted #onpoli

While teachers & ed workers are working hard to prepare for the reopening of schools, our Premier decides, yet again, to belittle educators. This does nothing to help inspire confidence for a safe return to schools for students, parents and educators. #OSSTF #onted #onpoli
