Parents associations around NSW are split over whether they support the teacher strike scheduled for this week | JordsBaker natassiazc

while country teachers will be asked to gather in regional centres. They will call for a pay rise of 5 per cent a year as well as two more hours of planning time a week.

The NSW P&C Federation said it did not have a position on the industrial action. However, some individual P&Cs supported it. “Teachers deserve more than thanks ... The proposed changes are an investment in our teachers and in the future education of our children,” the Stanmore parents’ association said.NSW Teachers Federation President Angelo Gavrielatos wrote to parents, saying he understood the strike was not ideal, but educators were deeply concerned about a shortage of teachers and the impact they were having on students.

A spokesman for the Department of Education said: “we once again urge the Teachers Federation to put students first and to call off their planned strike, which has been ruled unlawful by the Industrial Relations Commission”.

The delay in approval looks like it was a supply issue. No lessons learnt in ordering? Why no ATAGI approval of brought-forward boosters to try to keep hospital numbers down when Omicron takes off? Seems odd. Another supply issue? Forced vaccination on children now There is absolutely no way big Pharma will get their hands on my children. What kind of parent would want to put an investigative vaccine into their children?

Teaching profession struggling with pandemic burnoutTeachers have reported struggling with a lack of support during remote learning, as well as overwhelming workloads, poor pay and conditions and low public respect for the role, new research reveals education The online learning we experienced involved unrealistic workloads and comprehension expectations. Parents were an afterthought and teachers took all the credit. I say parents deserve an honorary teacher degree! With the way parents are in 2021 I wouldn’t touch the profession with a barge poll. The Victorian Labor government is still yet to agree on a new agreement. 12 months ago it expired. Where is AEUVictoria ? Where is JamesMerlinoMP ? No where it seems. auspol springst
