NZEI Te Riu Roa members will consider whether the offers address their concerns about the growing teacher shortage and the inadequate support for children with additional learning needs.
NZEI’s teacher lead negotiator Liam Rutherford said members would consider whether the offers addressed the needs of children and their learning. It also remained to be seen whether parents and the wider public thought the offer would make a difference for children.
“As teachers and principals we can see that the issues in our schools simply can’t wait any longer and our students’ learning is already being negatively affected because of the difficulty in recruiting and retaining teachers,” he said.
“Member leaders are not making any recommendation to the wider membership about whether to reject or accept the offer.”
If the offers are rejected there will be further consultation with members, and at the NZEI Annual Conference in early October, where members will make recommendations about next steps.
