JobBridge is exploitative and should be abolished

As a member of the INTO I was delighted to see our general secretary, Sheila Nunan, quoted in your paper (22/8) describing the JobBridge scheme as ‘exploitative’ and urging young teachers not to be pressured into taking up a JobBridge placement.

INTO members have successfully opposed JobBridge since it was first introduced.

At successive annual Congresses, members have by huge margins voiced their opposition to its use and the union has instructed members not to participate in it.
