安大略计划用任命的专家取代经选举产生的学校董事会,解决对财政管理不善的关切。 Ontario plans to replace elected school boards with appointed experts over concerns about financial mismanagement.

安大略教育部部长Paul Calandra提议,以财政管理不善为由,任命专家取代经选举产生的学校董事会董事,并已在五个主要董事会设置了监督员。 Ontario Education Minister Paul Calandra proposes replacing elected school board trustees with appointed experts, citing financial mismanagement, and has already placed supervisors over five major boards. 诸如加拿大上区学校董事会主席Jamie Schoular等一些国家提供了支持,认为指定成员具有业务专长,这将改进问责制和长期规划。 Support comes from some, like Upper Canada District School Board chair Jamie Schoular, who argue appointed members with operational expertise would improve accountability and long-term planning. 然而,包括教育联盟和加拿大校董会协会在内的批评者警告这一举动会破坏地方民主,削弱社区代表性,无法解决诸如班级规模和学生支持等核心问题。 However, critics including education unions and the Canadian School Boards Association warn the move undermines local democracy, weakens community representation, and fails to address core issues like class size and student supports. 辩论的核心是平衡效率和对公共教育的民主参与。 The debate centers on balancing efficiency with democratic participation in public education.
