Members istrict news New OTF head urges,. small classes ','Declining school enrolment should have the effect of lessening the number of students in every classrom. If we truly believe in the quality of educational_. opportunity, providing teachers with more .ap- propriate numbers of students to' work, with is a reasonable means of ensuring it," says James 1. Carey, the newly -elected President of the Ontario Teachers' Federation. Mr: Carey was elected at the annual meeting of the Federation's Board of Governors held this week at the Prince Hotel in Toronto. He succeeds Ross Andrew as President of OTF, the organization representing 106,000 teachers in the province. "Teaching is a person-to- person process. Teachers attempt to educate each student to the limit of his or her capacity. We are more concerned with a student's progress than a student's grade placement. Those outside education sometimes confuse that with a lowering of standards. Obviously smaller classes would enhance the educational process," says Mr. Carey, who, as a father of five and a veteran teacher, is deeply concerned with the quality, of instruction Ontario's students are receiving. "At the present.time," Mr. Carey explains, "when we already have a surplus of trained teachers, we should substantially reduce the size of our classes to enable each child to learn more ef- fectively. This is expensive only if one ignores the costs of later diagnosis and remediation of learning difficulties,, special education and adult re-training." In addition to having served as 1st Vice -President of the Federation for the past year andas a member of the Executive since 1974, Mr. Carey has been active in his own affiliate, the Ontario English Catholic Teachers' Association. He has been a member of the Association's Provincial Executive since 1969 and was president of OECTA from 1972 - 1973. suzulI Many Back -to -School Savings Now!
