What teachers in Ontario need to be doing is spending all their time improving the skills of students. In Hamilton, 50% of elementary students can't pass the Grade 6 math test. The scores across Ontario and Canada are mediocre at best and we're consistently being outperformed by students in other countries, especially in Asia. Advancements in fields such as robotics, automation, sensors and advanced telecom are breathtaking. Canada won't be able to keep up without dramatically improving it's educational outcomes. If Johnny can't pass his math test in a school named McDonald, he's not going to pass it in a school with another name. Unless we get our priorities straight now, Canada will be left permanently behind. The clock is ticking.
