   Comments: As a an Ottawa native, teaching in a country where cheating is rampant, I strongly urge the Ontario ministry of education not to continue with this policy. Why would any students work hard if they can just wait for the others to get their assignments back and then cheat by copying from their classmates

   Comments: This is a very worthy cause. When I went to SRB many years ago, there were no second/third/fourth chances. They were fair, and that was all that was expected or needed.

   Comments: There has to be a reasonable chance given, for instances when a child is sick and misses a deadline or test, but otherwise they must learn that deadlines are important and that your work is to be your own. Youth too often are let off with no consequences for their choices and this in turn harms the ones who are trying hard and deserve the rewards and recognition for a job well done.

    Comments: The no fail policy prevents students who need the most help, attention and support from our educational system fall through cracks

    Comments: I fully agree, this policy is ridiculous! I taught high school for a few years, prior to transferring to the elementary panel, and these children need boundaries and barriers. These students, pupils, "young adults", are still young people, children, that need to be held to the standards of the real world. There are no "do overs" for some occupations. This is a policy that enables students to "pass the buck", and encourages procrastination. How does this prepare them for the real world How can we encourage independence , and skills needed if we are forced as teachers to allow them to abuse the system and find an easy out This needs to change, for the strengthening our student development, independence and time management skills!

    Comments: We are not teaching our children anything by giving them this sort of leeway. Failure is a part of life, we should teach them to deal with and over-come it.

    Comments: Students who work hard and succeed need to be distinguished from those who do not, or worse, cheat. These provincial guidelines penalize hard-working students by devaluing their effort. As a classroom volunteer I have seen an increasing level of disregard for assessment. Many students know they get a free lunch with such policies and are very disruptive and disrespectful in class of the students who do want to learn. This means the teacher deals with increasing chaos and can lose even the good students.

    Comments: How can we teach our children to be responsible individuals when what they are learning is that they do not have to do their assignments just sit back and copy someone elses work and get the credit for it.

    Comments: Without going into details, I fully support changes to the current "No Fail" system. In the technological driven labor market today, such a policy is an insult to the highly skilled labor force needed by Canada, and goes directly to the productivity and competiveness of Canada`s economy. Without quoting a lot of stats from Statistics Canada, Ontario`s contribution of Canada`s GDP is hugh and,therefore, so should the percentage of secondary students graduating in any given year. Also, any teacher who fails to be fully committed to achieving this goal should be respectfully assessed (this needs to be part of teacher contracts) and can be aptly worded to fully comply with Union rigidity which needs to change. As a business man making many trips around the world, respectfully the education system in Ontario is seriously flawed and needs to change in a hurry.....!
