Public school teachers reject 28 per cent pay rise offer

Teachers in Victoria have rejected a 28 percent pay rise offer from the state Labor government, according to the Australian Education Union. A ballot revealed that 57.7 percent of approximately 60,000 voters opposed the proposal, citing it falls short of their demand for a 35 percent increase over three years. The union plans to communicate these concerns to the government.
