“Welfare of kids should prevail,” education minister says in chastising board for letting situation get out of hand.
Last week, at a board meeting, the HDSB said it would seek input from parents and students about the creation of a “professionalism policy” that includes dress standards for staff, which is be presented on March 1. It says it’s in the process of finalizing a stakeholder survey, which will be shared shortly. In January, trustees directed the board to devise the policy, after it had long maintained it couldn’t impose a staff dress code, citing equity and human rights.
Lecce told the Star he’s “reaffirming the expectation of parents, of taxpayers, of everyone with common sense, to impose a professional standard that ensures kids are able to learn free of any distraction — frankly free of the threats, the bomb threats and many unacceptable challenges that are now being imposed on these schools on a weekly basis.
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the HDSB said the board could not comment on anything related to the medical status of any employees. “The HDSB always strives to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for all students, staff and the community,” said Heather Francey in an email. “Our approach is informed by opinions from leading employment law firms, as well as experts in human rights and equity legislation.”
