Support Staff March, Queen Street, 2009
The Government has introduced National Standards for reading, writing and maths for children in years 1-8. NZEI believes the test of any new system is whether it puts children’s learning first.
In the wake of the Budget’s huge cuts to early childhood services with high levels of qualified teachers, NZEI is urging all members to support our campaign for 100% quality in ECE.
This campaign aims to ensure that our primary teacher members participate in shaping the direction of primary education in New Zealand.
The Education Workforce Advisory Group's report 'A Vision for the Teaching Profession' is out. It contains proposals to radically change the teaching workforce.
The Fair Deal campaign for Support Staff in 2009 was successful in breaking the wage freeze in the state sector. School Support Staff got a “Fairer Deal” but there is still a long way to go for them to go.
Campaigning for a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating causes of inequality in pay and employment. |
