IEU says: tell the NSW Government to take teacher pay seriously

27 July 2022 Hear Our Voice Rally

All teachers in NSW need a pay rise! The collapse of negotiations between the NSW Government and the NSW Teachers Federation also means no pay increases are on the table for teachers in NSW Catholic systemic schools.

The IEU stands with the NSW Teachers Federation as they condemn the NSW Government for walking away from the previously negotiated agreement.

Make sure the NSW Government gets this message loud and clear. Email NSW Premier Chris Minns and Education Minister Prue Car.

In writing to the NSW Government, we can collectively urge them to address the teacher pay crisis that impacts teachers in all schools.

Salaries in NSW Catholic systemic schools are inextricably linked to NSW Government teacher wages. It’s time to fix this impasse and achieve better outcomes for all. We call on NSW Catholic systemic employers to immediately address the pay crisis by agreeing to pay rises of at least 8-12%.

Tell the NSW Premier and Education Minister to take teacher pay seriously. The time to act is now!
