Welcome
On behalf of the Boards of Education Sector Executive, I would
like to welcome you to your sector website which we hope will provide you with
information and resources to support your work as members of the sector.
We currently have five units in the sector, consisting of
Educational Assistants, Instructors of English as a Second Language,
Office/Clerical Staff, and Technicians. We share a common commitment of
supporting students with special needs, in Life Skills/Developmental Skills
classes, Career/Learning Centres, Adult Education, ESL and mainstream classroom
settings. As workers within school board settings we know the value of working
as a team, sharing resources and areas of expertise in meeting the needs of the
students we serve.
As a Sector Executive, we have made a commitment to working with
all units, to have our voices heard and to be recognized and valued for the
important work we do. We see like ourselves as a team within OPSEU that has
valuable information to share when it comes to negotiating fair contracts and
addressing issues that are common in our daily working lives.
Please make the commitment to get involved in your sector!
Contact any of the Executive Members listed on the website with your ideas,
questions, concerns and stories. Collective ideas and active voices benefit us
all. We look forward to lobbying the Ministry of Education so that they will
recognize the value that members of this sector contribute towards student
success in this province.
Let’s make this sector a strong, visible part of OPSEU.
In Solidarity,
Silvanna Petersen
Sector 3 Chair, Boards of Education
