Good news on the education front. The Province has reached tentative contract deals Monday with public elementary teachers and support staff in most schools, ending their work-to-rule campaigns.
The deals with the ETFO and CUPE were the last major education agreements to be reached in a long and controversial bargainning process.
However, a deal still hasn’t been reached with education workers represented in some communities by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation. Therefore, they are continuing their administrative strike and the provincial government has given trustee associations the power to dock the workers’ pay by 10 per cent.
