In a push to woo the teachers union, mayoral candidate Bill de Blasio yesterday denounced high-stakes tests and endorsed several other union platforms.

Public Advocate de Blasio, a contender for the endorsement of the union, labeled as “good policies” the UFT’s proposals to reduce high-stakes testing and abolish A-through-F letter grades for schools.

He said the testing “undermines a focus on teaching and learning.”
