The Ottawa Catholic School Board is a strong Catholic community committed to providing the best educational experience for our children where faith is central and celebrated each day.

Teachers wanting to apply for a permanent teaching position with the Ottawa Catholic School Board must first apply to the Long Term Occasional (LTO) Roster in accordance with Regulations 274/12 and 148/13 – Hiring Practices. Applicants must have a minimum of 10 months seniority that is within five years and a minimum of 20 full teaching days to be considered for the roster. Subsequent to this, upon completion of a minimum four (4) month LTO Contract, and having received a positive evaluation from the principal, the occasional teacher may be considered for permanent hire. Interviews will take place as follows

• End of July 2013 beginning of August 2013 - new LTO roster interviews for candidates who did not previously qualify and now qualify based on legislation changes under Regulation 148/13.
• September 2013 - PD session offered by the Board to candidates who were not successful in their LTO roster interview

• October 2013 - Interviews for occasional teachers (if needed, based on space on the occasional teacher list)
• January 2014 - LTO roster interviews
• Late July 2014 and August 2014 - LTO roster interviews
