Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board

I was either in the office doing administrative work and coordinating projects or out in the community building relationships with local partners to support the projects I was implementing to support the community and school. 

I learned a lot in this position, not only how to develop an organization but work with diverse groups of people in the education, business and community sectors to respond to common needs. I learned to to needs assessments and evaluations for every program I implemented to help the school and the community. 

I learned to manage projects, meetings, volunteers, staff and students. 

I worked with government officials, staff in the education system and community members and coordinated to bring them together on a regular basis. 

Hardest part of the job was getting a lot done with limited funds. 

Most enjoyable seeing the impact and change that can be made when given the opportunity to make a difference.

Far too much job security in the workplace. Employees are able to challenge authority and largely refrain from preforming their intended objective without any repercussion. This has consequently degraded the quality and efficiency of work found throughout all levels of employment. There is simply a collective unwillingness to perform in a desirable manner. If there were less job security and higher wages, employees would be persuaded and consciously motivated to enhance their quality of work in angst of potential dismissal.

Socialize between faculties and not simply the department you work in.  It allows for creativity and cross curricular activities and learning. It allows the teacher to think outside the box.

I feel there are not enough hours to go around and so it can be very competitive. It is a primarily female staff and things tend to get catty. There are many different schools within the board, the beauty of the job is you can change schools every year, the pay is good and the union takes relatively good care of you.

It was a fulfilling  job, I was very sad to leave. The principals were approachable, friendly and has realistic expectations of both students and staff.  The coworkers were professional, caring and equaly friendly. Everyone pulled together to get things done. It was a great team environment. 

I was hired by the Sir Wilfred Laurier Schoolboard as a substitute teacher following my graduation. I enjoyed the flexibility of teaching here and there while still exploring other employment options. I enjoyed my time with the board and am also a prior student with them. They have a large territory and many different locations.

Collaborative and professional, this workplace is bilingual and a great force for education in Quebec. I began as a supply teacher and was awarded contracts through professional excellence.  It is a great work environment which puts kids first!

Unfortunately, too many people who are not qualified for the jobs they were given (promoted to) have been running the main office. They are so behind on paying their substitute teachers on time, that the substitutes have left for greener pastures or other jobs entirely.

Hopefully with our new collective agreement will get better pay and better working conditions. I've been with SWLSB for 4 years and live my coworkers and the families that I work with, but I feel the employer does not value us and we are very easily replaced.

Directors trusts that you will be doing your job. They give you projects  and help you when needed. For hard working people, it is great, but unfortunately lots of people take advantage of it.
