As you know, there have been a number of our colleagues across the state impacted by school classification and reclassification. The Association Executive, Skye Seymour | HR Reference Group Chairperson and Michael Trist |Vice President/Executive Liaison have been incredibly active in this space in taking it to senior Human Resources personnel, the Secretary and the Education Minister. We have also met with Craig Petersen SPC President and Angelo Gavrielatos NSWTF President. We have sought an embargo on the issues arising until it can be addressed in detail. The Association has also made suggestions and drafted a model of classification that encapsulates a fair and equitable classification for all. Individual Principals have presented their schools’ numbers and data to Federation too.

As this matter is of an INDUSTRIAL nature, I believe we need to follow process and follow procedure. We have drafted a motion for you to take to your next local Federation Meeting and we hope that if Principals lodge these motions across the State we will raise the concerns we have regarding Classification and Reclassification.
