Guaranteed, increased and recurrent funding to our Public TAFE must be restored! End the failed neoliberal “market model”. A fully resourced TAFE is the answer

[Annette Bennett @abennett41]

JUST fund public TAFE properly - TAFE is the answer to the skills shortage crisis! #qanda

I just took pledged to defend workers' rights from Peter Dutton's attacks with @unionsnsw. Join me and stand with ordinary working Australians here: https://t.co/8SLRnGYu8A

If this doesn’t bring a tear to your eye, nothing will. Thank you Mr Dill.

So Bridget McKenzie is having a dummy spit about housing that won't meet targets because of a tradespeople shortage. A shortage created by LNP govts who closed down TAFES, that made higher education unaffordable and made labour hire more acceptable instead of apprentice training

TAFE TA members stand in solidarity with our school teacher colleagues. How many times do you need to make an agreement before you stick to it? #HonourTheDeal @pruecar @ChrisMinnsMP

TAFE students from around Australia can enter this national photo competition 'Life on Campus' to win cash prizes and a trip to Canberra for National TAFE Day this year. https://t.co/3TZn2VV5zJ

Years of all our hard work by @TeachersFed TAFE activists has started the process to #rebuildTAFE
The next step to stop dodgy private for profit training providers ripping off students & tax payers.
300,000 TAFE -not VET fee free student places and $3bill budget.

[maxine sharkey @maxsharks]

At last, a minister who respects TAFE as a public good. Things are about to change for TAFE students and teachers. Anyone who thinks TAFE should operate as a business, or “just another VET provider” should leave now and let us educators get on with it

[Julie Ross @msjulieross]

After 12 years of neglect there is optimism in the air. Thankyou @pruecar @nswteachers

Some of our best and brightest Australians chose TAFE.

With 180,000 fee-free TAFE places now available, it's easier than ever to get on this list.

[Peter Malinauskas @PMalinauskasMP]

We’ve signed a deal to return train and tram operations to public ownership - while avoiding any termination costs.

This is a rare and historic achievement – returning a privatised service to public hands where they belong.

“Problems elsewhere” says former PM Morrison #perspective

[Teresa Randal randaltsrandal.bsky.social @RandaltsRandal]

Look who was listening to Dutton's losing address.

No doubt the Liberals will keep losing when they continually fail to weed out people like this.

“While the outcome of some seats is not yet final, the clear defeat of the ⁦@Dom_Perrottet⁩ Govt puts an end to deliberate neglect & denial which has left our schools & TAFE in a state of crisis,” ⁦@TeachersFed⁩ president ⁦@AGavrielatos⁩ https://t.co/yt8hSTuVDr

[maxine sharkey @maxsharks]

To all the fantastic @TeachersFed tireless activists today. you deserve#MoreThanThanks

[Annette Bennett @abennett41]

I agree with @rlong62
We must ignore the fact that @garethjward faces sexual abuse charges and concentrate on rebuilding TAFE #rebuildwithtafe and fixing the crisis in our public schools & hospitals

[Robert Long @rlong62]

@illawarramerc @KiamaBlowhole @garethjward is now irrelevant. Even if he wins Kiama he is suspended from Parliament. He post election tantrum & his legal issues should be ignored so we can now focus on improving local schools, hospitals, TAFE, & other public services after 12 years of neglect & funding cuts

[Annette Bennett @abennett41]

@TeachersFed Penrith Election Forum
@AGavrielatos speaks passionately of the Teacher shortage crisis in #WesternSydney - a crisis that is of the NSW gov’s making!
“This is the most important election in NSW in living memory”.
Perrottet Gov does not deserve your vote.

#teachershortage It doesn’t take Einstein to work out why attendance is dropping - let alone the negative impact on student wellbeing and behaviour!!!
Would you go to watch a play if you knew some of the parts would not be filled?

[Robert Long @rlong62]

This morning in Kiama SCLC Secretary @ArthurRorris held a media conference speaking for Nurses, teachers, public sector & essential workers calling for @garethjward to withdraw his nomination as an independent in the electorate of Kiama. 1/3

Oh, I don’t know — perfect for Confined Spaces training!

[Adam Curlis @TAFEeducation]

TAFE in a box, anyone?

In many regional areas of NSW this is what passes as TAFE after 12 years of vicious funding cuts.
