SASK. TEACHERS FEEL PROVINCE NOT BARGAINING ON CLASSROOM SIZE AND COMPLEXITY ISSUES

As negotiations for a new contract continue between the Saskatchewan Teachers Federation (STF) and the province, teachers are claiming that their concerns with classroom size and complexity are not being met.

According to a news release from the STF on Thursday, a third meeting between teachers and government representatives in Regina this week ended with “no progress on these issues”.

“We see no evidence that government and trustees are at the point where they are willing to seriously engage in finding solutions to the difficult problems facing education in Saskatchewan,” STF president Samantha Becotte said in the release.
