From early 2025, the IEUA NSW/ACT, along with other IEUA branches, has been bargaining for a new enterprise agreement (EA) for teachers and general employees employed by Indie Education across Australia.
The union has now reached agreement and has been advised that a vote on the EA will be conducted by the employer through a third-party provider in the week of 12 to 18 October 2025.
The EA will deliver some improvements to your pay and working conditions. While it does not capture every claim we pushed for, it represents meaningful progress and lays the groundwork for future bargaining.
The growth in membership and engagement we have seen over the past few months has been fantastic. This has shown that these issues are important to staff, and we want to have a voice. We need to keep this momentum going to ensure that we are in an even stronger position next time bargaining begins. Every new member adds power to our voice at the bargaining table. Please encourage any non-member colleagues to join the IEU.
