Policy Announcements

On Saturday, June 9, 2007, Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory, Leader of the Official Opposition, articulated a new policy platform for public funding for faith-based schools. The PC Party is recommending that faith-based schools be brought into the public system. The expectation is that participating schools:

Fully incorporate the complete requirements of Ontario's common curriculum, just as in the Catholic system;

Participate in Ontario's standardized testing program and agree to published results; and

Appropriately address teacher credentialing.
