As a TVOT Daily OT did you know?
-
You can accept TVARRIS daily assignments
outside of your qualifications, e.g. French, Intermediate etc.
-
Morning half-day assignments shall end no later than 20 minutes after
the end of class instructional time and afternoon assignments shall begin no
earlier than 20 minutes before class instructional time.
-
Occasional Teachers shall not be assigned supervisory duties prior to the
commencement of class on the first morning of an assignment or prior to the
commencement of the afternoon class on the first day if it is a half-day
afternoon assignment.
-
An Occasional Teacher who accepts and reports
for an assignment shall be placed in that assignment unless otherwise mutually
agreed. However, where there is a vacant classroom assignment,
reassignment of the Occasional Teacher from a non-classroom assignment may
be necessary at the discretion of the Principal to address student needs.
-
The timetable for an Occasional Teacher shall
be the same as the timetable as the Teacher they are replacing. This includes
prep periods and supervisory duties.
-
Members need to keep track of times when they
do not receive their prep periods as they will receive compensation for the
loss of this valuable time at the end of the school year
As
an LTO, did you know...
-
You have access to 11 days of sick leave at
100% of salary for those in a full year, 1.0 FTE assignment, and then 120
short-term disability days (STLDP) at 90% of salary (STLDP often requires
medical documentation)
-
Sick leave days are pro-rated for less than a
full year assignment or less than a full time position.
-
LTOs who are in full-time and part time
positions are expected to attend Professional Activity days at their schools
according to their teaching complement/FTE. That is to say a half time / .5 LTO
participates in half of the PD Days and will be paid at the LTO rate to attend.
-
Long-Term Occasional Teachers should always check the LTO form when
hired to verify that the information contained therein is accurate.
-
Long-Term Occasional Teachers’ salaries are
based on the salary grid. The yearly salary for an LTO and a permanent teacher
are the same for the identical years of experience and grid placement. However,
the LTO’s annual pay is divided by the 194 teaching days in the school calendar
for a per diem.
- To be eligible for benefits, LTOs must be in an assignment of 90 calendar days or longer.
- LTOs in the NTIP program are exempt from the evaluation component of the program.
