B.C. teachers and their employer say they have reached a tentative deal on a new collective agreement. It is for three years. Both sides say more details will be released once the deal is voted on by members of the B.C. Teachers Federation.
A tentative agreement has been reached with British Columbia's 45,000 public school teachers.
Details of the contract won't be released until after it's ratified, although the government says the deal was reached under the guidelines of its sustainable services negotiating mandate.
In 2019, that mandate included a two per cent wage increase over each of three years.
The contract covers teachers who work in 60 B.C. school districts.
A tweet from the B.C. Teachers' Federation says the executive committee is recommending the agreement be accepted.
After several days of marathon negotiation sessions this week, a tentative agreement between the BCTF and the #bced employer, BCPSEA, has been reached. Our Executive Committee is recommending the deal to the membership. An email with more info is on its way to members now.
