Nothing new here, but treating teachers as professionals and paying them accordingly would be a game-changer for improving student outcomes. @JaneCaro @AEUVictoria @AGavrielatos theage.com.au/national/pay-t…

Pay teachers $130,000 to attract high achievers, leaked review says

Trainee teachers must learn more about managing classroom behaviour, engaging with parents and teaching reading, according to a review of Australian teaching.

Asked today about the far right thugs storming the shrine - a building dedicated to those who died at war - LNP Sen Amanda Stoker said it reflected lockdowns and heavy handed approaches. Retweet if like me that disgusts you.

In good faith, we redesigned education during a pandemic. We want to get on with helping our kids be happy, healthy and actively involved in their education. @DanielAndrewsMP @JamesMerlinoMP please bargain in good faith. #SupportSchoolStaff @AEUVictoria.

All VCE students will be assessed for special consideration. 17 y o Shannen is relieved about the changes but scared they will “devalue the work of the kids that put in a lot of effort versus the ones who didn't”. theage.com.au/national/victo…

'Extraordinary': All VCE students assessed for special consideration

Under new changes, Victorian students’ ATARs will take into account school closures due to COVID-19, long absences, increased family responsibilities and mental health impact.
