BY JACK RTBDELL
On the subject of the
sparing of facilities and pro-
grams by various schools
etc.. the Project 'has recom-
mended the removal of exist-
ing barriers to co-operation.
It has r ecommencled:
40. That training programs
leading to employment be
operated co-operatively by
the Ministry.. of Education,
the Ministry of Colleges and
Oniversities, and other Min-
istries, in conjunction with
appropriate representation
from business and industry.
41. That such co-operative
action ensure that efficient
use is made of existing
facilities, and that, where
feasible, school boards 'be
encouraged to share facili-
ties, particularly expensive
technical facilitiei, with col-
leges, industrial-plants,: and
offices.
42. That legislation be
introduced which would allow
the Minister of Education to
apprepriate a surplus School
building needed by another
board or take other action that
may be recommended to
52. That, where appropriate,
school-related packages be
designed to accommodate the
educational and vocational
goals 'of students in order to
provide a practical incentive
for-- them- to- continue 'their-'
studies Su h ka c pac ge
obtain the most effective use
of available facilities.
43. That schools and school
boards be further encouraged
to work with municipal gov-
ernments-and local agencies
offering education or recreat-
ional programs to develop
guidelines for facility shar-
ing, these guidelines 'to in-
clude suitable cost-sharing
arrangements and methods
of avoiding duplication of
resources.
The concept of "contract-
ing out" - the actual purchase
of programs by one school or
agency from another - raises
questions related to, teacher
certification and responsibil-
ity for granting the credit.
This issue is closely related to
the clarification of the roles of
colleges and secondary
schools.
Iris therefore recommend-
ed':
44. That existing legisla-
tion be amended to permit
school boards to enter into
formal agreements with the
colleges of applied arts and
technology and other bodies
for the provision of services
s
"build in" relationships'
among courses which might
not be present if the subjects
were taught independently.
53. That the Ministry of
Education be prepared to
basis " ommunity-related
approve os an experimental
packages" which may be
developed jointly by teachers
. and community personnel.
54. That schools offer cred-
it courses which are concent-
rated and practical in content
and designed chiefly to meet
the needs of the work-place.
These courses could provide
- both academic- upgrading and— -
training in specific skills, and
should be short enough to
enable static:its on leave from
jobs to return to work reason-
ably quickly.
55. That' schools recognize

46. That the Ministry of
Education encPerage school
boards to share the cost of
consultants and co-oedinators.
and perhaps supply incentive
funding to encodrage such . — sharing.
New and improved, met-.
hods of offering certain pro-,
graMs must be devised, part-
icularly in sparsely populated '
areas, in small schools and in
courses with very low enrol-
ments.
The Project recommends:

Education bring together TV•
Ontario and the Ministry's
Correspondence Education
Section to discuss the produc-
tion of alternative courses'
particularly to ensure the
maintenance of programs
threatened by declining_en-
rolment.
48. That the Ministry of
Education's Correspondence
Education Section be permit-
ted to su pply school boards
with course materials on a
cost-recovery basis.
49. That wittiall alternative
learning programs in which
students are not regtilarly
assigned to a class, the
student be. assigned to a
_teacher within the school to
monitor progress and• offer
counsel and instruction -• as--
required.
50. -- --That alternative
methods of earning credits be
reviewed regularly by schools
and school boards to ensure
that qu ality ' and standards
are maintained,
51. That the special and
useful tole of the alternative
schools and programs estab-
lished by school boards be
examined with a view to
accommodating a wider var-
iation. in parental and student
expectations of the secondary
schools..

The summer games alternated, between
Seaforth and West Branch during the
four-year relationship.
Seaforth had similar problems with its
sister several years ago. Mr. Peter suggestedl
in 'a report to Seaforth council in June this

local representatives pursue the West Branch
rivalry further to see if the relationship could
be salvaged, because of the goodwill and
co-operation that has existed between the two

hopes it can patch thing's up with our sister
town in West Branch,'Michigan and restore

this summer when West Branch voters
decided they didn't want to support their
