Ontario Schools Will No Longer Require Teachers to Pass Math Proficiency Test Due to ‘Racial Disparities’
The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has deemed math proficiency tests for teachers “unconstitutional” due to “racial disparities.”
The court ruled that because non-white teachers are less likely to pass the math test, it should no longer be required.
As one social media commentator aptly pointed out, Ontario teachers no longer need to pass basic math in order to teach basic math.
As bad as your first-impression take on this might be, it’s actually even worse. Read closely: this math proficiency test isn’t for the students, it’s for THE TEACHERS. Your Ontario teacher no longer needs to pass basic math to teach basic math. pic.twitter.com/zuec7zo2yM
