Near North District School Board

I worked there as an Educational Assistant -it took a long time to get off of the supply list with few shifts, onto temporary and then full-time. I went back to school to obtain my Teaching Degree, but they wouldn't let me take  just 3-4 weeks leave to do my practicums - I had to take 1/2 year off unpaid! Then, I was not allowed to go on the Teaching Supply list, while working full-time as an EA. Without supply teaching, I could not get on the Temporary Teaching List and later Permanent!

As one of many teachers working for this board for more than 20 years, one must ask why so many people have either been forced out or quit due to the issues and shenanigans that go on.
If you are thinking about working at the NNDSB, talk to people that work in the schools. It is a very different story than the one you will hear from upper administrators.
It is not a place that puts students or employees first. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The kids came first and the staff were amazing!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The internal baggage some of the kids carried.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very supportive! The staff and administrators went out of their way to ensure that everyone felt welcome and valued.

I love working for the Near North Board since I love being a teacher. The part I struggle with is being an Occasional Teacher. The life balance is difficult to achieve because I never know what days I'm working, so it's also difficult to budget because I am paid per day.

Stressful, no support and the more you do the more they take advantage. Staff leave with bruises and head concussions. No respect and administration just shut their doors so they pretend not to know what’s going on. 

Mapleridge Public School is one of the most amazing places to work. That’s what I can base my review of Near North District School Board on. The staff I had the pleasure of working with were some of the most amazing people. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good work hours.
Good benefits.



What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Extremely toxic work environment.

I enjoy going to work everyday .I love what I do and really appreciate having my job.
Great group of co-workers.
Have a great boss.
Very well kept in the loop of what is happening at the entire office.

I enjoy working for this employer. The salary is comparative to that offered by other school boards & they offer good professional development to their teachers.

10 years minimal raises. Little growth opportunities high levels of nepotism. Very extreme behaviours from students. Employer and union try to screw you over.
