ARCHIBALD, Justice.

This case arises as a result of unilateral actions taken by the Superintending School Committee of the City of Portland (hereinafter, School Committee), realigning the duties of certain teachers during the 1972-73 school year. In one instance, English teachers at a junior high school were assigned five daily teaching periods rather than the previously assigned four periods. In the second case the School Committee significantly increased the number of students assigned to a high school typing teacher. 1
