The Faculty of Education has made every effort to predict the effects on students' school placements which may occur because of work disruptions in the schools. The Faculty is also ready to make changes if unforeseen situations develop. Such decisions will be made and announced by the Faculty as events evolve. However, the Faculty cannot be held responsible for situations which are beyond its control. Students should be prepared to be flexible if necessary.
