Episode Details

Twenty thousand Victorian teachers marched on Spring Street in a 24-hour strike, demanding a 35% wage rise over three years and better conditions including fewer meetings and smaller class sizes. The teachers rejected the government's latest offer by just over 51%, with union members threatening another strike on 4 August if negotiations don't progress. The industrial action escalates pressure on the Allan government ahead of November's state election.
