The Ontario Greens Deputy Leader Aislinn Clancy has voiced strong criticism towards the Ford government’s recent announcement of new high school graduation requirements, claiming it was made without consulting educators. While supporting the inclusion of financial literacy and essential life skills in the curriculum, Clancy emphasizes the lack of crucial details that would impact students and teachers significantly. She highlights the government’s disconnect from the realities faced by educators, urging for future collaboration to ensure that any curriculum changes prioritize the needs of students and teachers alike.
