[Design and Technology] Teacher Assistant Initiative

[Bazeley]

So this is the extent of the State Government's support for Technical
education as promised at the last state election?

It appears that the promise of SSO's is something of chimera! The roll out
has some disturbing conditions.
Only SOME schools will have dibs on only SOME of the promised SSO poo. Most
schools will have to wait and the figures initially quoted for the roll out
over the time period have been subject to some creative accounting!
A bit disappointing.

Dear colleagues

 

For those teachers in Victorian government schools, DEECD is introducing
the Secondary Teacher Assistants Initiative. Technology Curriculum
Coordinators and teachers may wish to discuss with their principal the
possibility of an assistant in the technology area - however it is
necessary to refer to the attached memo and guidelines. This could be a
great opportunity for technology teachers to get some help in a similar
way to science and home economics/food technology areas.

 

Regards, Lorraine.
