Ontario education minister says no decisions made yet on removing class size caps
Ontario teacher and education worker groups raised concerns Thursday that the government’s consideration of removing kindergarten and primary class size caps sets the stage for vast cuts.
The Progressive Conservative government met with education partners Wednesday to launch consultations on class sizes and teacher hiring practices.
A government consultation document poses questions such as whether hard caps on class sizes should continue, and if they were removed, what would be an appropriate way to set effective class sizes.
