Do participating teachers play a role in determining which elements of the NTIP they will participate in?
Yes. Together the mentor, participating teacher and principal will collaboratively determine the strategies to be used as support during the implementation of the NTIP. Strategies may change as the needs of the new teacher change. The new teacher signs the form to signify that participation in the NTIP induction elements has been completed. The principal’s signature indicates that the new teacher has received two Satisfactory ratings on performance appraisals for new teachers and has completed the NTIP. In addition, there are some minimum requirements for the NTIP. All participating teachers, regardless of experience, must receive an orientation. All new teachers in a permanent position who have never taught before, whether trained in or outside of Ontario, must receive orientation, mentoring and professional development/training supports.
