Ontario to take control of London school board over financial-management concerns, launch probes into three others
April 23, 2025
In a move to counter alleged financial mismanagement by school boards, Ontario is taking control of one school board in London that sent executives on a retreat to Toronto that cost nearly $40,000 last summer, and launching financial investigations into three other boards.A fifth board, which made the controversial decision to send trustees to Italy to buy religious art for two schools last year, will be required to submit an implementation plan to meet the government’s fiscal and governance expectations.
