Fix this textEducation faces funding cuts
Fix this textof at least $1.7 billion with
Fix this textan accompanying loss of
Fix this textthousands of positions, which will
Fix this textimpact on every student in every
Fix this textschool and TAFE college.
Fix this textThe Government has imposed
Fix this texta number of economic structural
Fix this textchanges that are designed to per-
Fix this textmanently diminish and weaken
Fix this textthe public education system. All
Fix this textare based on devolved funding
Fix this textmodels that will allow the State
Fix this textGovernment to abrogate its respon-
Fix this textsibility to adequately resource and
Fix this textstaff the public education system.
Fix this textThese include Local Schools, Local
Fix this textDecisions and Every Student,
Fix this textEvery School. Because TAFE is al-
Fix this textready highly devolved, with TAFE
Fix this textInstitutes operating on a Resource
Fix this textAllocation Model (RAM), the State
Fix this textBudget cuts mean each Institute
Fix this texthas to sack teachers and support
Fix this textstaff, and cut courses.
Fix this textThe Department of Education
Fix this textand Communities has been deci-
Fix this textmated. The recent dismantling
Fix this textof the regional structure, com-
Fix this textbined with the earlier gutting of
Fix this texthead office, effectively means that
Fix this textschools are isolated and with little
Fix this textsupport.
Fix this textThe most recent cuts in the
Fix this textschools portfolio will impact on
Fix this textall students particularly those
Fix this textwith the greatest need for sup-
Fix this textport. There have been cuts to the
Fix this textnumber of positions held by expert
Fix this textteachers who develop the programs
Fix this textwhich support these students. The
Fix this textcuts include the loss of multicul-
Fix this texttural ESL positions, Community
Fix this textInformation Officers, regional sup-
Fix this textport for low socio-economic status
Fix this textcommunities, Country Area Pro-
Fix this textgram consultants, Aboriginal edu-
Fix this textcation support, Reading Recovery
Fix this texttutors, student services, specialist
Fix this textcurriculum support, sports pro-
Fix this textgram staff as well as the adminis-
Fix this texttrative positions. The loss of these
Fix this textpositions, and the expertise of the
Fix this textteachers holding them, will mean
Fix this textno state and regional coordinat-
Fix this texted access and equity education
Fix this textprograms.
Fix this textTAFE Institutes have initiated
Fix this text‘reviews’ that will target for cutting
Fix this textboth trade and non-trade courses
Fix this textas well as the loss of 800 teaching
Fix this textand support positions. This figure
Fix this textdoes not include the incalculable
Fix this textnumber of part time casual teach-
Fix this texting positions that will also go. At
Fix this textthe same time the Government in-
Fix this texttends to replace teachers and head
Fix this textteachers in TAFE with new classi-
Fix this textfications called “tutor/instructors",
Fix this textwho do not need to be qualified,
Fix this textand who will be paid less and made
Fix this textto work longer hours under worse
Fix this textconditions.
Fix this textVote no in TAFE

Fix this textTeachers should reject TAFE's proposed
Fix this textenterprise agreement.
Fix this textJoan Lemaire
Fix this textSenior Vice President
Fix this textAll TAFE teachers are urged to vote
Fix this textagainst the TAFE enterprise agree-
Fix this textment in the ballot which will be held
Fix this textDecember 12-14. The proposed en-
Fix this textterprise agreement represents TAFE
Fix this textmanagements' proposals. It is not
Fix this textsupported by the Federation and the
Fix this textAustralian Education Union (NSW).
Fix this textVoting against the enterprise agree-
Fix this textment will prevent TAFE from im-
Fix this textplementing plans to replace TAFE
Fix this textteachers with lower paid tutor/in-
Fix this textstructors and assessors, undermine
Fix this textjob security and allow TAFE man-
Fix this textagement to decide whether or not
Fix this texthead teacher positions will be estab-
Fix this textlished or maintained.
Fix this textDefeating 'die enterprise, agree-
Fix this textment in the ballot will force TAFE
Fix this textmanagement to return to salary ne-
Fix this textgotiations. The union will contin-
Fix this textue to pursue salary increases in an
Fix this textagreement which will provide pro-
Fix this texttections around the number of teach-
Fix this texter and head teacher positions as well
Fix this textas opposing attempts to allow the
Fix this textcore work of teachers to be delivered
Fix this textby lower paid and less qualified staff.
Fix this textThe union entered into negotia-
Fix this texttions with TAFE on the basis that
Fix this textTAFE teachers should receive a
Fix this textpay increase of 2.5 per cent with no
Fix this textchange to working conditions. TAFE
Fix this textmanagement, however, wanted a fun-
Fix this textdamental restructure of how TAFE
Fix this textcourses would be delivered. The pro-
Fix this textposed enterprise agreement includes
Fix this textnew classifications of staff as tutor/
Fix this textinstructor 1, tutor/instructor 2 and
Fix this textassessors who will do key elements
Fix this textof the work which TAFE teachers al-
Fix this textready do, but they will be paid less,
Fix this textand have lower qualifications.
Fix this textThe so-called “delivery teams”
Fix this textcould include a teacher and/or head
Fix this textteacher and numbers of tutor/in-
Fix this textstructors and assessors. Rather than
Fix this textsimply supporting teachers these
Fix this textproposed classifications attempt to
Fix this textbreak down the approach to teach-
Fix this texting where qualified teachers develop
Fix this textand design teaching programs, de-
Fix this textliver them in a manner which sup-
