"The Teachers' Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA) provided lockout notice to the Alberta Teachers' Association (ATA) on October 6.
"This is a routine process employers use in response to unions going on strike, which the ATA did on October 6. The lockout will begin October 9 at 1 p.m.
"We saw earlier this year with rotating strikes by educational assistants the tremendous uncertainty it created for school divisions, parents and students who were given very short notice about where strike activity would be taking place.
"The lockout will provide predictability and stability for students.
"If the ATA has no intention of doing the same, then the lockout does not impact their current strike actions of removing teachers from all classrooms across the province.
"TEBA remains dedicated to reaching a collective agreement and expects that the ATA will continue to bargain in good faith to reach a fair deal for teachers, school boards and our kids.
"TEBA has no further comment at this time."
