( Alan Rivett photo) Early retirement option available The provincial government has taken ac- tion to increase the number of jab oppor- tunities for recent teaching graduates while offerined 55 and over a revised early-retirement teacherspt on, Education Mini ter Sean Conway announced. The earely-retirement option, introduced by treasurer Robert Nixon, as an amend- ment to the Teachers' Superannuation Act, 1983, suspends for three years the financial reductions incurred when teachers choose to retire early, The Ontario Teachers' Federation and many school boards have adv ocated such a plan, which will apply to teachers aged 55 or older who have at least 10 years of service. "The entire teaching profession will share the advantages of the plan," Mr. Conway said. "The new provision will be 'especially attractive to several categories of teachers, including some teachers who would other- wise never be able to qualify for a pension without a reduction factor." These cate pries include: - Vocational and teaching teachersho, because they entered the teaching profes- sion later in life, could not qualify for an unreduced pension under previous regula- tions; - Women teachers who left .teaching for a time to have children and raise their families in the years before leaves of absence were available; - Teachers over 55 who are facing layoffs or redundancy because of declining enrolment. The legislation is designed to address several issues including the impact declin- ing enrolment has had on the teacher workforce in the last decade and the failure of two-thirds of graduates from faculties of education to find teaching jobs in recent years. It will also address the anticipated critical shortage of experienced teachers in the mid-1990s, created after the retirement of the teachers who joined the rapidly - expanding profession in the 1960s and 1970s. "The legislation affirms the government's commitment to encourage excellence in our education system," Mr. Conway said. "The move will ensure a future pool of well- , trained, experienced teachers in the classroom, while enabling longer -service teachers to retire without undue financial burden."
