LETTER OF AGREEMENT — MULTI GRADE ALLOWANCE
between
The Seine River School Division
and
The Seine River Teachers' Association
of the
Manitoba Teachers' Society
RE: SECTION 4.06 OF THE COLLECTIVE AGREEMENT, MULTI GRADE ALLOWANCES
As per Collective Agreement signed by the respective parties dated June 28, 2021, an agreement was made to provide an allowance for each teacher who has a multi-grade classroom as follows:
100% of the time 737.59 as of September, 2021
75% of the time 551.80 as of September, 2021
50% of the time 371.58 as of September, 2021
25% of the time 185.81 as of September, 2021
Administratively, challenges arise in the calculation of wages for teachers who have multi grade responsibilities and are less than 1.0 FTE. For that reason, Seine River School Division, the Seine River Teacher's Association and the Manitoba Teachers Society agree to a one time adjustment for the purpose of simplifying payroll calculations. Adjusted rates will be as follows:
100% of the time 744.00
75% of the time 558.00
50% of the time 372.00
25% of the time 186.00
Note that no retroactive pay will be applied and this adjustment is agreed to without prejudice.
