“It`s wonderful to see a fair deal that provides stability and security during perhaps the most difficult school year of our teaching careers,” education minister RJ Simpson said. In the meantime, both sides commit to a “common intention to prioritize and respect Indigenous people and culture throughout the NWT.” Monday`s announcement formalizes an agreement provisionally reached last June. The new agreement will last until July 31, 2021, the two sides said in a joint press release. Other changes introduced in the collective agreement include a $450 increase in the base amount used to calculate living allowances for northern teachers. “This agreement has strengthened support for educators at a time when workload and expectations continue to rise,” said Matthew Miller, President of the Teachers` Association. The agreement also implies the obligation to modernise the approach to professional development.
