Public high school teachers are out with plans for a one-day strike next Wednesday.
So far, it affects eight school boards, including instructors and education workers at including the Peel District School Board and the District School Board of Niagara.
In addition to the one-day strike action, school boards not included in the full withdrawal of services will be will hold information pickets in front of schools, at MPPs' offices, and in other locations throughout the entire province.
The limited strike action began on November 26th and continued every week up to the Christmas break.
Negotiations have been ongoing for eight months.
The President of the OSSTF says the Minister of Education is still committed to the Doug Ford agenda of larger class sizes and mandatory e-learning.
Stephen Lecce provided an emailed statement after news broke of the strike action. "Parents have been clear: strikes by unions hurt kids and that investments should go to support student success, not towards enhanced compensation. We agree with Ontario parents. This is why we will continue to vigorously champion the interests of students and seek stability for parents in 2020, who are frustrated and tired of the union-led escalation that began in 2019. This continued strike action is unfair to students and their families."
