The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic left our schools scrambling. The sudden need for distance education thrusted us into an experiment with online learning that we weren’t ready for. The results of that experiment aren’t in, and in fact may never be. But it did expose cracks in our education systems.
Join us for a provocative and revealing analysis of K-12 public education that will serve as catalyst for public policy debate and discussion. Exploring the nature of the Canadian education order in all its dimensions, The State of the System, authored by Paul Bennett, explains how public schools came to be so bureaucratic, confronts the critical issues facing kindergarten to grade 12 public schools in all ten provinces, and addresses the need for systemic reform.
