IEU Supporting AEU Stoppage
June 17th
Non-government school pay rates are struck against the
government pay rates as a benchmark. 2008 Catholic pay rates are tied
directly to the DECS outcome
There are no free rides
We cannot piggyback off AEU members efforts without
contributing.

Message of
Support for our AEU colleagues
As an employee in the
non-government school sector I respectfully call on the government to
significantly improve its response to the AEU's claims in the current EA
negotiations. The government sector determines education industry
benchmarks for salary and conditions. I do not believe the current pay
offer properly values the work of SA's school staff. By extension this
offer also undervalues my work. SA pay rates need to be nationally
competitive and at the moment SA teachers are the nation's lowest paid.
This does nothing to support the profession or good educational
outcomes. I call on the government to make a revised offer which more
meaningfully addresses the issues on the table.
Sincerely,
