MORE JOB ACTION BY ETFO

By Kirk Winter

The Trillium Lakelands School Board would like to share the following information with its parents regarding the week of February 10 to 14, 2020.

“The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario has announced there will be two one-day strikes again next week. This will impact all ETFO members in the province on Tuesday, February 11 and TLDSB as part of a rotating strike on Thursday, February 13, if an agreement with the Province and ETFO are not reached. Elementary schools in TLDSB will be closed to students on both of those days. Secondary schools will remain open.”

Talks between ETFO and the Province broke down last weekend. No new talks are planned. Issues like staffing, support for Special Needs students and compensation remain almost intractable sticking points between the Province and ETFO.
