Staffing Allocation Model

Current Update

The first stage of the School Staff Allocation Model was used for the first time to allocate core teaching and administration staff to schools for 2007.

The second stage of developing the remaining staff categories that are allocated to meet various student needs, such as ESL and special needs, is continuing.

The model is expected to be fully implemented by 2010.

Overview

This project aims to allow for more flexibility and transparency in staffing arrangements, to meet the needs of students. A more equitable staffing formula will be developed which will include guidelines that allow schools more flexibility in their staffing arrangements. A position has been funded until 2007 to manage the project.

This is a Supporting the Territory's Teachers initiative.
