Video Message From QPAT President Heidi Yetman: Bill 23 and June 10 Demo

It is important that you understand the essence of this Bill, which will have a major impact on teachers in the classroom and on education in Quebec. The Bill touches three areas in education that I think are worth discussing: governance, professional development and distance learning. – QPAT President Heidi Yetman

Message from QPAT President Heidi Yetman – April 14, 2023

“According to the employer, these proposals will retain and attract teachers. It is disturbing to me that the employer thinks that by removing student codes, removing class averages, forcing professional development on teachers, and promoting online teaching for any reason it deems suitable, will attract and retain teachers. There is nothing in this proposal that will improve class composition or the workload. It goes to show that the government does not value the teaching profession. “ – Heidi Yetman, QPAT President

It’s time to pay attention to teachers’ priorities!
