"The Honourable Tom Osborne, Minister of Education, today announced an increase in school administrator and guidance counsellor positions for the new school year. The allocation for administrators will be increased by 15 positions and 25 additional guidance counsellor positions will be provided. These resources build on the 70 substitute teachers to be hired on term contracts and assigned to specific schools. These initiatives follow the recently announced enhancements to custodial services in schools through an increase from five to seven hours each day for current custodians and the hiring of up to 25 casual custodians on a temporary full-time basis. These additional positions will be funded under the Federal Government support package announced today for the reopening of schools. Newfoundland and Labrador will receive $26.1 million; $13 million will be provided immediately and the remaining $13 million in January 2021." http://web.archive.org/web/20201129202825/https://www.gov.nl.ca/releases/2020/education/0826n02/
