Manitoba teachers union proposes study on class size and workload
Local teachers attend areas to instruct the provincial executive to investigate Manitoba teachers working conditions with focus on class size and teaching loads at all grade levels including industrial arts and home economics. They seek recommendations, consulting services for teachers with mental health issues, and up to $15 000 for a reading project, while defeating tobacco and liquor advertising restrictions. A joint lunch at the Royal Alexandra Hotel featured speaker remarks on education and values, and Aubrey Asper was elected president with a new provincial executive for 1967-68.
