Supervision


L16.06 

(a) The Board shall implement the following provisions respecting supervision schedules:

  • Effective on the date of ratification, the maxima of supervision minutes for elementary teachers will be 80 minutes within each period of five instructional days. Scheduled supervision duties include, but are not limited to, yard duty, hall duty, bus duty and lunchroom duty.

(b) Supervision time shall be defined as the time a teacher is assigned to supervise students outside the 300 minute instructional day as defined in Article L17.03. Unless assigned, teachers shall not be required to perform supervisory duties outside of the instructional day as defined in L17.03.

  • For greater certainty, supervisory duties include assigned duties such as yard duty, hall duty, bus duty, lunchroom duty and other assigned duties undertaken before the beginning of opening exercises or the start of instruction in the morning, before the commencement of classes following the lunch interval, and after the end of the instructional day as defined in Article L17.03.

Supervision cannot be Extra-Curricular Activities

(c) Teachers on part-time assignment shall only be required to perform a prorated amount of supervision time in accordance with their teaching assignment.

(d) Supervision shall be assigned by the Principal on as equitable a basis as possible. The Principal will review the supervision schedule with the In-School Staffing Committee as per Article L23.19 (d).

80 minutes is the maximum amount of supervision.  A principal could assign less, as long as it is equal for all. The only stipulation is that supervision is equitable, meaning all 1.0 FTE members have the same number of minutes in 5 days.
