Oh look, the #BCNDP Government finally noticed the Post-Secondary system is collapsing. *slowclap*

Can hardly wait for that report next spring... maybe I will still have a job by then...

PS: I have a crazy idea: perhaps post-secondary should be majority-funded by government, not by exploitative international tuitions that can just *disappear*)

PPS: Domestic enrolment is not declining in any significant kind of way in the sector. From the “State of Post Secondary Education in Canada 2025” by Alex Usher:
"This decline in per-student funding is therefore not primarily a result of a significant decline in total funding; rather, it is a result of expenditures remaining more or less
constant while enrollments increased.”

WHICH IS WHAT EDUCATORS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR DECADES

This government is trying to 'rob Peter to pay Paul', attempting to pit children with different needs against each other because they don't provide the adequate supports.
They have the resources, they have to actually invest it in adequate and early supports for our children.

I raised the one example of Scoil Eoin in Crumlin, which many children from Tallaght go to.

Government is declaring war on students, increasing fees and scrapping any rental protection they had.

Fair play to everyone at the Dáil this evening

We should have genuinely free third level education, where no student is constrained by finances.

The government refuses to say they won't be increasing student fees to €3,000 a year.

Join this protest next Tuesday.

We should have genuinely free third level education.

All levels of education should be genuinely free.

The fight for appropriate schools places for children continues.

Despite campaigning, protests, and hard work by parents and activists, government refuses to guarantee that children will not be left stranded again without the school places they need.

Things I never thought I would hear in a University* classroom.

"Has everyone had breakfast this morning!? There is free food just down the hall!”

And to think contemporary politicians continue to believe tuitions can just keep rising..…

We started this pantry last year after a student fainted in the hallway.
