 |
| 21.2 | Effective September 1, 2005, all full-time teachers will be
assigned for 6 periods, and for Additional Professional Assignments as specified in Article 20 “Additional Professional Assignments”. |
| 21.3 | A part-time Teacher’s workload shall be pro-rated to that of the Teachers set forth in Article 21.2. |
| 21.4 | All Teacher workload issues shall be discussed at the
In-School Staffing Committee in accordance with Article 30. If unresolved, the matter shall be referred to the Secondary Staffing Committee for resolution. |
Other Factors Considered in Teacher Timetables
The following factors are considered when developing a teacher’s timetable.
 | teaching qualifications |
| needs of the department and school |
| number of different courses taught (attempt to minimize) |
| total student contacts for a teacher (See also the handout entitled "Current Class Size Language") |
| teacher preferences |
| consecutive assigned minutes. |
NOTE: Seniority is not normally a consideration in timetabling. It does not give a teacher the "right" to courses or sections in a particular department.
Split Between Semesters
A full time teacher should normally have 3 lines in one semester and 3 lines in the other. Requests for exceptions are to be presented to and approved by the Secondary Staffing Committee. A teacher cannot be required to teach any split other than 3/3.
