Q&A For the Posting Rounds

1) Can redundant teachers apply to the postings?   - No

2) Can casual teachers apply to the postings?   - No

3) Can a teacher apply for a posting with a greater FTE than they currently hold?
 - No - increases are not granted through this process

4) Can a teacher apply for a posting with a lesser FTE than they currently hold?
   - Yes - and this becomes their FTE for next year

5) Can teachers who are less than 1.0 FTE this school  year, but who requested to return to full time (as per article 29.01 of the collective agreement) for September 2012, apply for posted 1.0 FTE jobs.    - Yes

6) Can teachers who requested a non-mandatory increase  apply for posting with an FTE greater than the FTE they currently hold?
   - No - we will address non-mandatory increases after surplus teachers are placed on the May staffing day

7) Can surplus teachers apply to the postings?
   - Yes and if they take a posting that becomes their new FTE even if it is a decrease (they will no longer be surplus or even partially surplus)

8) Can a 1.0 FTE non-surplus non-redundant full-time teacher apply to a posting with less FTE?
     - Yes, and they would become part-time (they assume the FTE of the posting) for the following year with a right of return to full-time for Sept 2013 (provided they apply by the deadline next year)
