Members will be meeting at the front entrance of the school to further discuss the critical need for more staffing support, and use the opportunity as a means of communicating with the rest of the school community.

NSW Teachers Federation representative at Bega High, Justina Baumann said the action will only occur for 10 minutes from 9.05am, to minimise interruptions to the school after such a "disruptive term".

The union said the staffing shortages have been exacerbated by COVID-19 and recent flooding, and it even got to the point last week where students had to return to remote learning due to the high number of teachers on leave.

"This term, we have had ongoing disruptions to our teaching and learning, where classes are being consistently merged under minimal supervision or, at some stages, being unsupervised completely."

Ms Baumann said it was not just Bega High School, but that many schools across NSW were facing significant disruptions to their ability to operate.

RECENT NEWS:

The union said the staffing shortages were not exclusive to recent times, instead it had been an ongoing issue for many years. It said the NSW government and the Department of Education had not addressed the issue in, "any meaningful way".

"As well as being unable to fill temporary and permanent positions, we are struggling with even day-to-day casuals to cover staff absences," said Ms Baumann.

Last week, Federation membership at Bega High voted to take a short industrial stop-action to address the ongoing staff shortage and shed light on the significant impact on staff and students

"Our membership at school views this industrial action as a time to discuss with our local community the issues our school faces in terms of staffing shortages and the impact this is having upon young people in our school," said Ms Baumann.

The union said it had also been attempting to make contact with Bega State MP Michael Holland for his position on the teacher shortage crisis.

Union members want to know how the new state MP planned to support the education of public school students in the Bega electorate.
