[Textiles and Technology] National D&T Teacher Shortage report

[Laura Murphy]

Good morning everyone, and welcome to National Design & Technologies Week 2019!

DATTA Australia is launching the program with the release of their National Technologies Teacher Shortage report, which contains alarming statistics about the staffing issues within our learning area, but which I'm sure will come as a surprise to none of you!

We're also delighted to say the Education HQ magazine has already picked up on the report, and has published a lead article on The National Education Crisis Threatens the Safety of Students.

Just in case you missed our members' mail out this morning, you can access the report and Education HQ article here - https://mailchi.mp/datta/design-technologies-week-2019-one-week-left-to-register-949157

There still time to register for D&T Week - join us to shout loud about our creative, challenging and vital learning area and help us to gain support to deal with the crisis.

Thanks to you all, Laura
