STUDENTS TURNED AWAY  

FROM TAFE COLLEGES  

by John Poulos  

In an administrative circular to Principals of all  

Technical Colleges, the Director-General of  

TAFE, Allan Pattison, has placed limitations on  

student enrolments in Technical Colleges.  

This directive has set  

priorities for enrolments in  

courses which are vocation-  

ally oriented and which are  

especially linked to this  

State’s development  

projects and those for on-  

going students enrolling in  

the second or later stages of  

their vocation courses.  

The directive will mean  

that thousands of students  

will be turned away from  

colleges and denied an  

access to technical and  

further education. The  

directive clearly stated  

expect that it will still  

not be possible for the  

department to accom-  

modate all eligible persons  

seeking enrolment this  

year. Impediments to the  

offering of student places  

in vocational courses with  

TAFE are the imposition  

of maximum staff numbers,  

the availability of persons  

offering recruitment as full-  

tune and part-time teachers  

and appropriate special-  

ized accommodation.  

In determining intakes  

into educational programs  

priority should be given to  

vocationally oriented  

courses, especially those  

linked directly to the  

State’s resource develop-  

ment projects and those for  

on-going students enrol-  

ling in the second or later  

stages of their vocational  

courses. ”  

The courses which will  

be cut include: Trade (eg  

building); Certificate (eg  

navigation); Post-trade (eg  

clerk of works); Com-  

munity based courses (eg  

art and design) etc.  

9000 Hours Cut  

Newcastle Technical  

College is losing 9000  

teaching hours. The cuts  

here will be in pre-  

apprenticeships classes,  

certificate and community  

courses. Many other  

colleges are suffering loss  

in teaching hours. Country  

colleges are being severely  

hammered by the priority  

directive.  

Until the enrolment  

period in technical colleges  

is completed the full effects  

will not be known. Feder-  

ation and TAFETA  

Council will be taking up  

the issues as matter of  

urgency with the Minister  

for Education.
