Experts continue to see major flaws in the K-6 curriculum, as the @Alberta_UCP ramp up diagnostic testing. We need reforms to support the WHOLE child in pandemic recovery. MORE social/emotional development, exercise & creative (free) play & LESS TESTING! #abed #yeg #yyc #abpoli

.@AdrianaLaGrange @Alberta_UCP There are 59 days left in the the 2021-2022 school year, and most school divisions only have one PD day per month. Where is the new curriculum that you want taught in September? ......and don't forget the resources to support it's implementation?

It's time to stand together as Albertans to protest the 2021 draft curriculum by showing our government it's time to DITCH THE DRAFT!
