In a letter to Education Minister Lisa Thompson, the heads of three principals’ organizations raise concerns over whether districts can expect additional resources to help support students with complex needs
Many of the children receiving intensive therapy under the current system attend school two days a week, for example, or half-days. The organizations say the cuts will force parents to put their children in school more frequently, or even full-time.
“We have three months left in the school year, and we don’t have personnel in place for [the students who will attend full-time],” she said. “We’re asking for more information and how we look at making this transition successful for these students.” Ms. Thompson told reporters at Queen’s Park on Monday that her office is working alongside the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services, and will share more details shortly.
