The union representing more than 10,000 Nova Scotia teachers says they’ve reached a tentative agreement with the province after months of negotiating.
In a statement from the Nova Scotia Teacher’s Union (NSTU), president Liette Doucette says the union is “pleased that we’ve reached a tentative agreement.”
“I congratulate both parties for working hard since the new year, and over the summer to reach an agreement.”

The union had been in negotiations with the government since December, when the last tentative agreement was rejected.
The teachers haven’t had a contract since the end of July 2015, when their agreement expired.
More details on this newly reached deal are expected to be given to the NSTU provincial executive on Sept. 15, ahead of meetings to be held with teachers across the province.
No details about the tentative agreement will be released until it’s been ratified by union members. No date has been set for voting.
