NLTA president Dale Lambe says “As education is the foundation of the future of this province, Newfoundlanders and Labradorians deserve to know who is willing to stand before the public and demonstrate a real commitment to public education.”
With a provincial election underway, the Newfoundland and Labrador Teachers’ Association is calling on all candidates to show a real commitment to the future of public education. In their Election Bulletin, educators question recruitment and retention, classroom complexity, student supports, and school violence. The NLTA invited candidates to their traditional Leaders Forum on Education this week but only the leader of the NDP agreed to be there. The Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party agreed to attend only if all leaders took part, while the Leader of the Liberal Party declined the invitation. Disappointed, Union president Dale Lambe says “As education is the foundation of the future of this province, Newfoundlanders and Labradorians deserve to know who is willing to stand before the public and demonstrate a real commitment to public education.”
