What needs to change in Quebec schools?

In October, the Education Ministry published a report alleging that a group of teachers at an elementary school in Côte-des-Neiges had for years created a toxic learning environment..

That led to a series of investigations into other schools.

In the wake of those events, about 30 Montrealers gathered at the Maison des Jeunes in Côte-des-Neiges for a conversation with CBC host Nantali Indongo about the state of our schools.

In this episode of This is Montreal, we'll hear from some of those students, parents, teachers, administrators, community organizers and researchers about their experiences in the Quebec education system and what they think needs to change.
