14 Breach of Tenancy Agreement

14.1

When the Teacher Tenant is in breach of Agreement, the Department may terminate the Agreement and institute proceedings to recover possession as follows:

  1. the Department must serve a notice on the Tenant, setting out details of the Teacher Tenant’s breach, and requiring the breach to be rectified — if the breach can be rectified — or requiring payment of compensation if the breach cannot be rectified within 14 days, or
  2. if the breach is not rectified or compensation is not paid within 14 days of the date of the notice, the Agreement will be immediately at an end, and the Teacher Tenant must vacate the Premises and leave it in the condition required by the Agreement
