At such a busy time a request for assistance with a survey may not be ideal. However, the SSTUWA believes there needs to be a serious effort to quantify the impact of the teacher shortages that have been exacerbated by COVID-19.
We would therefore ask you as a school leader or union rep (or in some cases both) to complete this survey to the best of your ability.
This information will assist in quantifying the full extent of the teacher shortage problem and the effects it is having on the day-to-day delivery in schools.
The survey contains no workplace or individual identification as the intent is to get a picture of the broader issue rather than single out individual workplaces.
Dates of reference: Questions in this survey should be responded to for the period of 19 July to 5 August (Weeks 1-3) only, except for questions 20 and 21.
Survey closes: 4pm, 19 August
Thank you for your contribution.
