@ShaneHurley @SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS They were originally hired with an interview and deemed qualified and suitable for a math teaching job. If the issue is regarding pedagogy or methodology then hiring is not the issue. What you are describing is a transfer.

Today's VOCM News Question of the Day: Do you agree with the Teacher Allocation Review that teachers should be hired and laid off based on qualifications and performance, and not seniority? vocm.com/2022/10/17/oct…

@organ_tlo @SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS This is also the case for replacement positions, they are to interview from a pool of qualified teachers and extend that pool only if there is no one qualified. Senority does not even come into play for replacements.

@brooks_nl @SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS IF you are a Permanent teacher applying for a permanent position.

@VOCMNEWS This is an irresponsible question from VOCM, it leads the public to believe senority is the only or first thing considered when hiring teachers. This is far from true. Qualifications and suitability are the first things considered for teaching jobs. Senority comes in play after.

@SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS This is what happens now. Speaking as a teacher in NL :) qualifications and suitability are considered first, then senority.

@VOCMNEWS How about we have a more stringent system to certify teachers. If they are deemed qualified by the governing body they get hired based on seniority. This would help eliminate the patronage that goes on in Nl.

@AdmiralsAcad_NL Condolences, thoughts, and prayers to the family and school community ❤️

It is with shock and immense sadness that we share the news with you today that our school community is grieving the death of one of our young students whose life was lost in a tragic accident. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this most difficult time.
