Green Left Online: NSW teachers’ strike cancelled by union

After a year-long industrial dispute, the New South Wales Teachers Federation (NSWTF) has reached an agreement for a new award with the NSW Department of Education and Training (DET).

The NSWTF had planned a 48-hour strike for the start of the school year, but on January 20 the NSWTF executive decided not to proceed with the action. The next day, the NSW Industrial Relations Commission made a recommendation to implement a new three-year award for school and TAFE teachers.
