A year of action and positive outcomes for IEU members
2025 has been a year of steady progress in securing gains for members across both political and industrial arenas. We have continued to strive to deliver the best possible outcomes for our members through dedicated union efforts. Read all about it in our 2025 Annual Report
Some highlights from the 2025 Annual Report:
- A record $4.4 million was recovered for members in 2025 (nearly double the figure recovered in 2024).
- Thanks to our reps and members in independent schools – your campaign was historic and made the union highly visible. The results were outstanding, with pay increases of up to $20,000 for some teachers, while many received $12,000, and support staff also saw significant rises.
- More than 1500 preschool teacher members, supporters, parents and the community rallied for pay rises in Sydney, with strong turnouts also in Lismore and Coffs Harbour. Read more
- After two years of tough negotiations, we’ve secured an agreement with 38 Christian schools in NSW.
- About 20,000 members in Catholic systemic schools were set to vote on new EAs as the Annual Report went to press. While pay rises were settled late last year, negotiations continued for months on the union’s claim for improved conditions. Read more
