A majority of kindergarten teachers voted to accept the new agreement because it enables all the parties to step back from the confrontation of the dispute and start working together. |
It's disappointing that the Maxim Institute is calling for school zones to be scrapped and for the introduction of a voucher system, when these policies have been tried and have failed. |
It's taken six hard months to negotiate this agreement and the teachers have never wavered in their commitment to maintaining the quality of education provided to children who attend kindergartens. This agreement meets their bottom line of ensuring that the quality of education is maintained at all kindergartens. |
