The Surrey School District is implementing a hybrid learning pilot project to deal with overcrowding in schools as classes resume next month. That's on top of the district announcing staggered class times to better adjust to surging enrollment and lacking school infrastructure.
Surrey Teachers' Association 2nd vice-president Violette Baillargeon joins the show to provide details on how the pilot will work as Surrey District Parent Advisory Council president Anne Whitmore comments on the impact this could have on families.
Valerie Irvine, professor of educational technology at the University of Victoria, joins the show to discuss strains on public schools and educational policies.
