EDUCATION FUNDING: Inadequate education support for our children
- Ontario school boards have been under-funded by $1.93 Billion or 8% in the last 5 years
- Fewer classroom teachers, special education teachers and student supports
- The College and University sector is a total mess
- Bloated foreign student enrollment, a tuition freeze and $1 b of underfunding created this crisis and contributed to the housing crisis
- The number Ontario colleges has nearly DOUBLED to 539 since Doug Ford took office and student housing demand skyrocketed
Ontario Liberals support hiring more teachers and specialists for special education and ensuring colleges and universities deliver high quality education.
