Ahnaaf Hassan · Ward 10

Walk with me. Your voice belongs in the boardroom.

Candidate photo

Still close enough to remember what it's like to sit in these classrooms.

In the last year, Ahnaaf served as your elected TDSB Student Trustee, representing over 239,000 students across Toronto. He's running because Scarborough Southwest and Beaches–East York need a trustee who knows what students and families need, will listen to them, and will advocate for them to the very end.

Having served on the board, he's connected to the issues schools are facing, and he's experienced them firsthand because he's been in the system himself. He's worked with grassroots and local organizations, trustees, and MPPs to amplify the voices of students and the community, and he's ready to bring that dedication forward next term.

The platform

Three things this board needs to get right.

Bring back classroom caps

  • Reverse the removal of classroom size caps and restore real limits families can count on.
  • Publish class size data by school so the board is accountable to what's actually happening.
  • Add a concrete number or target once confirmed with Ahnaaf.

Restore funding to model schools

  • Reverse this year's funding cuts to model schools in Ward 10.
  • Confirm exactly which program or schools this refers to, and what "restoring" looks like.
  • Add a concrete commitment once confirmed with Ahnaaf.

Give parents and students back their say

  • Regular, real consultation with families before decisions are made, not after.
  • A trustee who's advocated on provincial bills and classroom resources, not just attended meetings.
  • Add a concrete mechanism, e.g. regular town halls or a student advisory panel.
