First, we want to express our sincere gratitude to all of you. It’s a privilege to work alongside such a dedicated and hardworking group. This year has had its challenges, we know the work isn’t easy, but your resilience strengthens our education system. Your professionalism, commitment and determination truly makes a difference. Whether through long hours, creative solutions, or supporting one another, you’ve shown what it means to be devoted educators.
The Collective Bargaining Team made it clear, we would not accept the board’s proposed cuts. From the beginning, we stood firm and successfully rejected all proposed changes. After intense negotiations, we reached a tentative agreement at 4:30 AM on December 10, 2024. On January 16, 2025, you voted 98% to ratify the tentative agreement.
Yesterday, January 22, 2025 the TDSB met,
and we are pleased to announce that the
Collective Agreement has now been ratified by both the ETFO Toronto Occasional Teachers' Local and the TDSB.
More information regarding retro pay will follow.
