The Board's right to initiate a transfer shall be exercised fairly and reasonably having regard to all the circumstances including, in particular, the educational needs of the Division, which shall be the paramount consideration and, as a secondary consideration, the needs of the teacher involved.
Prior to any Division initiated transfer occurring, the Division shall provide to any teacher being considered for such a transfer an opportunity for consultation with respect to the transfer.
The most reasonable notice possible given the circumstances shall be provided to a teacher who is being transferred by the Division.
In exceptional cases, the Division may transfer a teacher on Teacher Improvement Procedures after consultation with the Association and the teacher.
