Class Size / Class Composition Consultation
Consultations between the Principal and teacher with respect to Bill 33 are exempt from our current job action. These consultations must by law be offered by the Principal for any class in violation of the legislated class size and/or class composition limits, but will take place only at the request of the individual teacher. Any teacher who attends a Consultation should have a Staff Representative present. Consultation forms should be forwarded to the VSTA office as usual.

Salary Indemnity Fund

What is it? 
As a member of the VSTA-SIF, after depletion of your sick leave, you may be eligible to a top-up payment of your BCTF salary indemnity which would then equal 65% of your gross salary.

The yearly fees for continuing and associate members are $40 and $45 respectively.  Members who do not pay their fee by December 31 of each year will be charged a $5 reminder fee, and if they are in arrears after one full year, be de-activated from SIF membership.  The salary top up provided by the plan is available for a maximum of twenty (20) days.  Teachers are reminded that the yearly enrolment fee needs to be submitted by members directly to the VSTA and is not deducted by payroll.
