The Government has announced that the target of 80% qualified teachers for teacher-led, centre-based ECE is being put back from 2010 to 2012 and the 100% target appears to have been dropped altogether.
Sign this postcard to call on the Government to recommit to a target of 100% qualified and registered teachers by 2012. (Postcards have been sent to all worksites.)
