[ad_1]


The Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation (STF) says it will be providing a “significant” update on negotiations with the province over a new contract for teachers.


STF president Samantha Becotte is expected to speak to the media at 10:45 a.m. Friday. You can watch Becotte’s news conference live using the video player at the top of this article. 


On Monday Saskatchewan teachers began “work to rule” job action that has an indefinite timeline. As a result teachers have been arriving at schools 15 minutes before students and leaving 15 minutes after students. Lunchtime and extracurricular supervision has also been suspended. 


Teachers have been without a contract in Saskatchewan since August 2023, with initial bargaining beginning in May of 2023.


Impasses in bargaining have been declared by the STF in October and February, with the general consensus that the two sides have not sat down for talks since the winter months.
