Premier says no confusion over Education Plan

 

The Premier does not think her government’s Education Plan conflicts with another agreement signed between the Teachers Union and the Employer.

Premier Christy Clark says her plan to reach a 10-year deal with teachers is a framework for the future.

Clark denies it would be moot if the Teachers Union and the Employers group reach a new agreement after ratifying their own bargaining process deal over the weekend.

Says Clark, “No, no.   I mean we’re talking about putting in place a framework for then ext 10 years.  The Government’s going to start negotiations again with the teachers union in very short order.  We need to have a plan going forward.”

Clark also denies there was any communication s problems when teachers say they didn’t know about her plan and Education Minister Don McRae saying they didn’t know about the teachers’ plan either.
