Teachers and the Australian Education Union finalised a workplace agreement. This is referred to as the Victorian Government Schools Agreement 2022. Within this agreement it states that ‘Teachers are entitled to a paid lunch break if not less than thirty minutes free from assigned duties between the hours of 11.30am – 2.30pm’.
We consulted with our staff as our current school timetable did not allow align with this new condition. The following timetable (New Bell Times) will be implemented in 2023 to ensure we work in alignment with the new agreement.
