Education

We can help young persons who attend publicly funded Ontario schools; this means both public and Catholic schools. As a disciplinary measure, Black students can be subject to suspension or expulsion hearings.

The Clinic can provide:

• summary legal advice
• document preparation
• negotiation and full representation when appealing disciplinary measures
• legal assistance with bullying and harassment, and other administrative issues that may arise during the course of a school year.

The Clinic may assist in matters arising in private schools, subject to eligibility criteria.

The Steps to Justice website offers step-by-step information about education and other common legal problems.
