Day of
green for
principals
Teachers, pupils and parents have been
asked to wear green on August 9 in support
of primary school principals’ fight for a bet-
ter pay deal.
New Zealand Educational Institute
(NZEI) Te Riu Roa principal members voted
to stop engaging with the Ministry of Edu-
cation after rejecting the Government’s
latest pay offer, worth $64 million.
Since July 9, principals have not been
communicating with the ministry or
attending ministry-led work groups,
taskforces or meetings.
NZEI has organised a national day of
support a month on from the principals’
boycott, asking supporters to wear green
and organise ‘‘highly visual activities’’ in
schools and at the school gates.
The day’s aim is to demonstrate com-
munity support for primary principals to
have parity with their secondary
