QUEANBEYAN West Public School staff walked off the job yesterday (May 31) in protest of the pressure put on them due to a “chronic shortage” of teachers in the public education system.
Deputy president of the NSW Teachers Federation Henry Rajendra said the shortage at Queanbeyan West, like many other schools around the state, means that schools are finding it significantly difficult to replace teachers who are sick.
“Classes have been split on a daily basis, causing disruption to teaching and learning programs at the school,” said Mr Rajendra.
