Digital Platforms and Teacher Professional Judgement

Teachers are reminded that the position of ETFO TVTL regarding digital platforms is as follows:

  • Restoration of pre-pandemic practice regarding Teacher use of digital platforms.
  • Teacher professional judgement is central to the deployment of digital platforms in support of student learning, as determined by the Teacher.

Teachers understand their duty to communicate with parents and will continue to do so in a variety of ways.

ETFO TVTL brought this matter to the attention of the Interim Director, and we will keep Teachers apprised of the process to resolve issue.
