Coronavirus: Ontario education minister says reserve funding will help schools address physical distancing needs
Description
August 13, 2020
When asked why he won't mandate smaller class sizes as educators in Ontario prepare to return to school amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Education Minister Stephen Lecce said the use of up to $500 million in reserve funding will give school boards "an element of flexibility" and will allow for more physical distancing resources.
