Teacher action a damning vote of no confidence in Labor

2nd May 2024

Unprecedented industrial action by the Queensland Teacher’s Union is a damning vote of no confidence in the Palaszczuk-Miles Labor Government.

It’s little wonder teachers have resorted to industrial action after nearly a decade of Labor failures in our education system.

Labor’s education report card includes a failure to develop a workforce plan for the teachers Queensland needs, chronic under-resourcing and rising violence in schools.

Education is now so out of control under Labor, teachers are leaving in droves and schools are battling critical teacher shortages.

Our hardworking teachers deserve to be valued and deserve to be listened to.

Labor’s failure to deliver the teachers they promised Queenslanders at the 2020 election and failure to listen, means our teachers have had to resort to industrial action just to be heard.

Queensland students and teachers are paying a high price for Labor’s chaos and crisis.

Only the LNP has the Right Priorities for Queensland’s Future, including boosting student-to-teacher ratios in schools and cracking-down on violence.
