Teachers Asked To Limit Report Card Comments

Parents shouldn't expect to see lots of feedback in the next batch of report cards for their children.

Ontario's Elementary Teacher Federation is telling its members to keep their report card comments short.

It's the latest move in the union's protest over the controversial law that freezes teachers wages, cuts benefits and stop strikes.

A source says elementary teachers have been advised to write only the bare minimum on upcoming report cards, such as a single sentence rather than a paragraph.
