Education departments need to address this growing issue with clear policies, adequate resources and strong leadership to confront misogyny and ensure schools are safe, respectful places to work and learn.

It is very welcome news to see enrolments in teaching degrees increase, because for far to long those numbers have been declining. https://bit.ly/4adWJ9E
Public education changed my life. Year 12 at Streaky Bay Area school with amazing teachers made me rethink my career options from fishing to teaching #Proudtobepublic @AEUfederal - get your photos out & celebrate the wonderful institution that is public education
π¬Teachers must be heard, respected, and treated with dignity. The government must immediately fulfill its commitments to teachers. Permanent employment and fair wages are basic rights.

In my public high school in Houston (San Jacinto), I learned about the Smoot-Hawley tariffs and how they led to the Great Depression. Trump went to an elite private military academy. He didn't learn about Smoot-Hawley.
The AEU, IEU and NTEU joined together today to speak out against Duttonβs attacks on teachers @nteunion.bsky.social @ieua.bsky.social
You can add the @aeufederal.bsky.social @ieua.bsky.social and @nteunion.bsky.social to the list
This week Peter Dutton made it clear he wants to interfere in schools, and tell teachers what to teach and how to teach it.
We've seen ideological attacks on the teaching profession before. So where is the Opposition Leader getting his ideas from?

AEU Federal President @chaythorpeaeu.bsky.social used her opening address to conference delegates to reinforce the importance of public education, especially for Australia's next generation.
The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the worldβs poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Peter Duttonβs line that having a strong public sector is about βpleasing the unionsβ is just wrong. It is about providing decent services to Australians, something he clearly doesnβt care about. He wants to return to mass outsourcing to their favourite consultants #insiders
