So a week before end of #OntEd school year, @Sflecce announced 3 scenarios for 2020-21 school year in response to #COVID19, on same day 2020-21 education funding was announced (3 months later than normal) but didn’t align with or cover costs of the 3 scenarios;
1/
Next day Minister tells a TV interview that he’s directed school boards to start September with blended/hybrid scenario but boards hadn’t received that direction formally;
Last week of school year, a new Gr1-8 math curriculum is announced for September implementation

My views on what govts could do in regard to K-12 ed during #COVID19 pandemic:
We value, support, trust & respect students, educators & edu workers;
We will do everything we can to encourage & support students’ well-being, equity & learning, including providing $ & resources; 1/ We ask school boards, schools, educators & edu workers to use their profession judgment to work in collaboration with each & every student & their families to support students’ learning as best we can;
We will make sure there are specific supports for most vulnerable students 2/
