FAQ
These are some of the most common questions that we receive about working for BC schools.
Do I have to create a separate login account and username for each district?
Yes. Each school district is its own employer and therefore each has its own requirements for applications. If you have to create accounts with several districts, it is recommended that you use a common username/login
Do all BC school districts use Make a Future?
School districts fund the Makeafuture.ca site. All districts have access to the site to post jobs and receive applications online. However, its not every districts preference to accept online applications. When viewing a job posting, if the Apply Now button does not appear at the bottom of the posting, thats an indication that the district prefers to receive employment applications by other methods. In these cases, the job posting should explain the application process.
When I apply for a job, do I apply to the district or Make a Future?
Career opportunities and job postings found on Make a Future are published by individuals at the school district office. When you apply, you are submitting the application to the district. Make a Future is not a staffing agency.
Can teachers transfer/port seniority from one district to another?
Yes and no; it depends. According to Article C.2.2.a in the provincial collective agreement, A continuing employee may port a maximum of twenty (20) years of seniority from school districts in BC in which s/he was previously employed in a position covered by the Provincial Collective Agreement between the BCTF and BCPSEA. Whats key is that the teacher must be a continuing employee that is he/she is employed in a continuing teaching assignment.
