Welcome to the website of the Tasmanian Branch of the Australian Education Union. On these pages you will find out about the huge range of activities, policies and campaigns in which our Union is involved in looking after the interests of our members. The core business of the AEU is to achieve the best pay and conditions possible for teachers and the staff that support them in schools and in TAFE. This is done through industrial agreements, advocacy and educating members about their rights. The AEU also furthers the interests of public education by pushing for better resources in schools. Please take the time to read the speech I made to the latest AEU Council meeting. Speech to Council 7th August 2009. Apart from the benefits of being part of a strong Union, members have access to a wide range of services such as cheaper health insurance, banking and discount shopping.
Leanne Wright AEU President, Tasmania MESSAGE TO AEU MEMBERS Some members have expressed concern about a call from the post year 10 sector for members in the Kindergarten to Year 10 sector to take industrial action in support of our Post Year Ten members’ campaign to roll back the Tasmania Tomorrow changes. Proposed industrial action by the PY10 sector was headlined in the Mercury today.I wish to reassure members that a proposal to involve all schools has yet to be considered by the Union’s Branch Executive which makes decisions about matters that involve the K to Ten school sector. For members to take part in industrial action of the nature described in the newspaper, (half day stop work meetings and a possible strike) members would participate in a ballot. I have been told that this matter will be raised at the Branch Executive meeting on Monday. Today I have taken part in a number of media interviews about the proposed industrial action. As well, the media became alerted to the fact that I wasn’t aware that a decision had been made about industrial action or the desire to involve schools, when they rang for interviews this morning. A full interview with the ABC is available by clicking on the image below. Please visit this page to see details about
