@ShaneHurley @SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS They were originally hired with an interview and deemed qualified and suitable for a math teaching job. If the issue is regarding pedagogy or methodology then hiring is not the issue. What you are describing is a transfer.

@organ_tlo @SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS This is also the case for replacement positions, they are to interview from a pool of qualified teachers and extend that pool only if there is no one qualified. Senority does not even come into play for replacements.

[MsBrooksNL @brooks_nl]

@VOCMNEWS This is an irresponsible question from VOCM, it leads the public to believe senority is the only or first thing considered when hiring teachers. This is far from true. Qualifications and suitability are the first things considered for teaching jobs. Senority comes in play after.

@SoxsoxsSt @VOCMNEWS This is what happens now. Speaking as a teacher in NL :) qualifications and suitability are considered first, then senority.

Monkeying around lead to a pretty intense student-lead competition to see who could get around our square monkey bars the fastest. It was awesome to see Ss driven and motivated by self-improvement! @SJAG2
