Joanne Christie Collyer posted a discussionRemuneration & Recognition Proposed Pay Model
Have you seen the proposed six step pay scale with add ons for expertise, experience, mentoring & qualifications. It is important that all 27, 000 Primary Teacher members view the proposed pay changes and discuss & debate them thoroughly so that the March cluster meetings can progress prospective claim details. We need all Primary teacher members to be clear about what they are voting on.See More

How did your R & R focus groups go?
I assisted in the facilitation of our Whangarei meeting. There was a lot to get through. However most Primary Network members present had a basic understanding of the current political climate which helped us get into the proposed pay model. The activities were well structured and clearly articulated. They generated good discussion. However in the timeframe we struggled to get to Leadership Development. I would like to hold another meeting to cover that, before the cluster meetings in…See More

Tai Tokerau PRT Seminar
Thanks to the ten or so PRT's that came to our seminar during the holidays. Most have not secured jobs yet however they are keen on relieving. It was great to network with new teachers. Thanks must also go to Angela Perrin for her sharing of PRT experiences with the group. It was great to have a folder for the group to view & Angela's up-to-date insight provided a wealth of information. I also appreciated receiving a birthday cake on the day. Thanks Jane Marti. I am looking…

Primary Cluster meetings
Whangarei branch hosted three cluster meetings. Unfortunately attendance was low, however we had good discussion about the remuneration and recognition report. The principles helped us focus on what we consider to be important. Concerns about the lack of career pathways and the governments refusal to accept the Practice Based Attestation model were food for thought. However as we lead up to our collective agreement negotiations next year, I hope more teachers share their opinions on the way… Continue
