This posting is restricted to Elementary and Secondary teachers who have recently retired from the OCDSB (between September 2021 and present).

The Leadership & Staff Development Division is seeking recently retired OCDSB teachers to serve as NTIP mentor-coaches to our NTIP teachers.

The New Teacher Induction Program (NTIP) is a Ministry mandated program that has been designed to support the growth and professional development of new teachers.

As part of the program, the District is required to provide a variety of supports including mentoring.

Mentoring will be conducted in a hybrid structure, which can include both virtual and in person meetings and classroom observations.

Opportunities for release time are provided for the new teacher and the NTIP mentor-coach to meet during the school day to work on specific aspects of the new teacher's development.

Police Record Check for the Vulnerable sector that was completed in the last six (6) months.
