Robyn White and Lauren Sheffield speak at 2017 CAPSLE Conference: "In the Land of Living Skies: Expanding Horizons in Education and the Law"

Robyn White and Lauren Sheffield speak at the 2017 CAPSLE Conference: "In the Land of Living Skies: Expanding Horizons in Education and the Law". They will be speaking on the panel "Transparency: A One Way Window - The Ontario College of Teachers in 2017". This presentation will examine the many elements of what occurs in the course of a College investigation into an educator's alleged conduct, including the lack of disclosure, the expansion of complaints and the prosecution of frivolous allegations. This presentation will also review recent legislative changes (Bill 37 - Protecting Students Act) and examine both the positive and problematic changes that are encompassed in the legislation.
