Peterborough area OSSTF president sounds alarm over proposed increase to class sizes
Description
March 20, 2019
Last week the provincial government announced that high school class sizes would be increased, arguing the move will save money and make the education system more efficient.
But it sparked an almost immediate backlash from teachers who say the move will result in job losses and create problems for students.
District 14 president David Warda was on Global News Morning Peterborough to talk about the changes.
