Minister for Education and the Arts The Honourable John-Paul Langbroek
Today, Queensland Teachers' Union members have voted against a historic deal that was put forward by the union and the Department of Education through the conciliation process.
While this is disappointing, I respect the process and will continue to engage with Queensland teachers.
This deal would have seen every teacher in a classroom paid over $100,000 by the end of the agreement and while it now falls to the QTU to explain why this deal was not accepted, the Government will now start progressing to arbitration within the Queensland Industrial Relations Commission to ensure we can reach an agreement.
