How is School Board Control Changing in Ontario?

As the province moves ahead with a proposed education bill, the education minister says trustees will still have a role, but one that will "change significantly." What have trustees done until now, and what could change if the bill passes? TVO Today's John Michael McGrath breaks down the background and the stakes, then joins Cathy Abraham, a long-time trustee and former president of the Ontario Public School Boards' Association, and Weidong Pei, Toronto District School Board trustee for Ward 12–Willowdale, on what these reforms could mean for school governance, classrooms, and students across Ontario.
