The PPTA has said it will keep up its fight for improved conditions and higher pay, and that more strikes are likely.
It appears that the PPTA is last to ‘fall’. I’m sure that the union is feeling the warming flow of mana knowing that they are the ‘last one standing’.
In such economic times though, there must be a thin line unions walk between looking like their standing up for members and looking way too greedy.
Secondary teachers must be applauding their union for the backbone it is showing but public perception is the key here and when extra-curricular activities and educational opportunities for young people are cancelled then *tusks from parents ripple through the wider community.
Enough is enough though. Let’s refocus now on educating our young people, enriching lives and brightening the future of New Zealand through top quality educational expertise.
