Ontario Education Minister Jill Dunlop is advising school boards to leave
politics out of the classroom in the lead-up to the one-year anniversary of the
Oct. 7 terror attack which sparked the Israel-Hamas war.

"Our government firmly believes in the safety and well-being of all children in
Ontario schools," Dunlop wrote in a memo recently circulated to school board
chairs and directors of education and obtained by CTV News Toronto.

"As we approach one year since the October 7thattack, we ask all school boards
across the province to uphold this principle and be vigilant in ensuring
classrooms remain safe, inclusive, and welcoming for all students and staff. As
education leaders, your role in upholding this principle has never been more
important."

Dunlop went on to say that the focus in schools "must always be on learning" and
that politics should be left out of the classroom.

"This means our schools and school-related activities should never be used as
vehicles for political protests that enable inflammatory, discriminatory, and
hateful content. While everyone is entitled to their own political opinions,
they are not entitled to disseminate political biases into our classrooms," she
wrote.

The memo comes as the ministry launches an investigation into a Sept. 18 field
trip where elementary school students from multiple schools were taken to a
protest at Grange Park in downtown Toronto.

The Grassy Narrows River Run was meant to highlight the mercury contamination
within the First Nation and the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) said the
event was intended as an educational experience. However videos circulating on
social media show some young students taking part in the march and repeating the
chant, “From Turtle Island to Palestine, occupation is a crime,” after someone
who appeared to be a protest organizer prompted the crowd to chant after her.

 * Follow the CTV News channel on WhatsApp

Outraged parents protested outside of TDSB headquarters earlier this week over
the field trip, which was the subject of a special meeting by TDSB trustees
Wednesday night. At that meeting, trustees suspended their own investigation
into the incident in light of the ministry's probe.

"It is my expectation that every school board will hold itself accountable to
the highest standards under Ontario’s Code of Conduct and govern with respect,
civility and responsible citizenship to ensure schools are free of
discrimination and harassment in every corner of the province," Dunlop wrote.

"This is particularly important as we see a distressing rise in intolerance,
racism, antisemitism, and Islamophobia across Ontario, including in our
schools. Everyone deserves to be safe, supported and included in Ontario’s
schools."
