Government of Ontario

Stop the Cuts to Full Day Kindergarten

WHEREAS Kids deserve the best start in life and full day kindergarten has helped improve social, emotional and cognitive development since its implementation;

WHEREAS Doug Ford's proposed lifting of the class size cap for kindergarten would mean even more crowded classrooms, less one-on-one time with teachers, and less support for our youngest learners;

WHEREAS The Ford government has refused to commit to full day kindergarten continuing past 2019;

WHEREAS Eliminating full day kindergarten would negatively impact kids while causing chaos for parents;

WHEREAS Evidence is clear that smaller class sizes mean big benefits for Ontario's students;

WE THE UNDERSIGNED petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario to call on the Ford government to take full-day kindergarten off the chopping block, oppose any plan to increase class sizes, and instead listen to families and education workers by making things better for kids, not worse.
