New Zealand teachers vote for strikes over inadequate pay and worsening working conditions.
New Zealand’s secondary and area school teachers, represented by PPTA Te Wehengarua, have voted for strike action after rejecting a government pay offer they deemed inadequate and rushed.
The union cites insufficient pay increases, rising student mental health needs, teacher shortages, and a lack of subject specialists as key concerns.
A nationwide one-day strike is set for 23 October, with additional actions including a ban on extracurricular activities on 29 October and a two-hour strike on 5 November.
Teachers argue the government’s offer failed to address worsening working conditions and retention challenges amid major education reforms.
