The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario says it will be starting phase two of its work to rule on Tuesday. News of their increasing job action comes as the union representing high school teachers plans one-day strikes on Wednesday in nine school boards. The Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation job action follows a province-wide strike a week earlier. The secondary teachers say they are pushing back against the Progressive Conservative government’s plans to increase class sizes and introduce mandatory e-learning courses. The Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association is also angered by the government’s class size and online learning plans.
