The Nova Scotia School Board Council of Unions (NSSBCU) includes the presidents of the eight CUPE locals representing school support staff in Nova Scotia. CUPE represents over 5,000 members working for all seven Regional Centres of Education and the Conseil scolaire acadien provincial, in every public school across the province. Read more about our members and the communities they serve, below.
With over 30,000 violent incidents reported in schools last year and understaffing reaching critical levels, it’s clear: the government’s inaction is putting students and staff at risk.
Now is the time to act: Read our report.
School support staff have been clear: they are ready to stand up for what’s right.
Join us in demanding a fair deal for school support staff and the resources needed for safe, supportive schools.
