Norfolk Island Teacher Consultative Committee – Communique #12

The Committee met on Thursday 18 November 2021.

The Committee noted that NSW Curriculum licencing negotiations are in the final stages. A meeting between the Commonwealth, Queensland, New South Wales and NESA was scheduled for Monday 22 November 2021 to resolve any remaining issues.

In response to feedback received from teachers during last week’s visit to Norfolk Island by Queensland Officials, the Committee was advised that NICS staff now have a direct point of contact with the Queensland Department of Education human resources area to address employment enquiries.

The Committee was advised that employment offer details are being finalised to ensure staff have access to clear and concise information on which to base future employment decisions.

The Committee will meet again on Thursday 25 November 2021.
