Chaired by Peter Sawchuck , this group includes staff from the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL), and the Ontario Secondary School Teacher’s Federation (OSSTF).

It coordinates a more extensive and sustainable preservice teacher education program in education and work issues, building on established business and technological studies offerings, and addresses challenges of coordination among graduate studies offerings in the inter-departmental focus on Learning and Work.

The group has published the curriculum guide “Challenging Class Bias“, available through the TDSB, and “Learning Labour: Ideas for Secondary Schools“, available through the OSSTF.
