Addressing Your Concerns
Meet Student Needs - For the sake of our children and for a prosperous Ottawa, we must ensure all students receive a good education. Children must be able to attend school safely, without fear of bullying. The needs of special education students, students learning English as a second language, and students at risk must be adequately addressed. Eliminate Two-Tier Schooling - Most parents know there are two tiers of elementary classes in Ottawa schools. Let's address this by ensuring the excellence of all classes. Ensure Adequate School Funding, Accountability and Transparency - We entrust over $700 million in public funds and more importantly, our children, to our public schools and we need to know this trust is well placed. The hand-to-mouth funding of schools must end and the provincial funding formula must be fixed. Introducing the Minister of Education at the Parents Voice For Education conference |
