The Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) has released a statement addressing today’s announcement by Education Minister Adriana LaGrange concerning the new Curriculum Advisory Panel.
ATA president Jason Schilling expressed concern about the uncertainty this panel will bring to the content and timelines of an already established process.
“It is unclear, however, just what the extent of the advisory panel’s authority is, how its recommendations will inform the process, and what sort of delay this will entail.”
— Jason Schilling, ATA president
President Schilling also questioned the composition and mandate of the panel.
