- At this time, there has been no decision to extend the 50 day limit for those teaching after retirement. The Local and OTF (the Ontario Teachers' Federation) will advise members if there is any change.
- TVOT members are urged to apply for all LTOs that interest them as currently we have people without teaching certificates filling some of these positions.
- Where an OT is hired for prep payback or IPRC meeting coverage, that OT shall be assigned no more than one supervisory duty per Article L18.03(b) and if this is a full day assignment for prep payback, then that OT shall be provided with a minimum of 40 minutes prep time at the beginning of the assignment per L18.03(c).
- Morning half-day assignments end no later than 20 minutes after class instructional time per L18.07.
- The Education Act requires all Teachers/OTs to be in the school building at least 15 minutes before the start of the instructional day and 5 minutes prior to the start of afternoon classes.
- An OT shall not be assigned supervisory duties prior to the commencement of class on the first day of the assignment (or if it is an afternoon job, than no duty before that first afternoon) per L18.03 (a) as the Board agrees that this time is needed to prepare for the day.
- TVOT members can participate in any of the paid PD options listed in Conference/Session registrations for a half-day of pay. The June 30th notation only means that these online sessions will be open until that date - they can however be completed at your convenience.
