Green Left: TAFE teachers strike against pay rip-off
Two thousand striking Technical and Further Education (TAFE) teachers gathered at Melbourne’s Atheneum Theatre on August 20 to demand better pay and conditions. The last time Victorian TAFE teachers went on strike was under Jeff Kennett’s Coalition state government 13 years ago.
Hundreds of classes were cancelled and many campuses across the state closed as Melbourne teachers were joined by strikers from regional towns such as Warrnambool, Shepparton, Ballarat and Bendigo.
