Modern Awards

There are two Modern Awards that may apply to certain employees - a Teachers Award and a General Staff Award.

These Awards apply to employees who are not covered by an enterprise agreement (e.g. the VCEMEA), or who are in an occupation covered by the exceptions provisions, e.g. Religious, Principals, Deputy Principals, etc.

In Victoria, Catholic Education is covered by the VCEMEA  and therefore will not be affected to a great degree by the two Awards. Two areas not covered by the VCEMEA are Instructors (e.g Instrumental Music Instructors and Sports Coaches) and Boarding School Staff.
