CUPE representatives aren’t pleased with the funding headed to the school boards for next year.
In a provided statement, Educational Assistant and President of CUPE’s Ontario School Boards Council of Unions Joe Tigani says the province isn’t doing enough.
Per-pupil funding is increasing 1.86% next year, below the inflation projection of 2.6%.
The union says the funding doesn’t invest in frontline staffing that would improve the lives of students and parents.
