Application for approval of the Independent Schools (Teachers) Cooperative Multi-Enterprise Agreement 2025.
An application has been made for approval of a multi-enterprise agreement known as the Independent Schools (Teachers) Cooperative Multi-Enterprise Agreement 2025 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by The Association of Independent Schools of New South Wales Limited (Applicant). The Agreement is a multi-enterprise agreement.
I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss 186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
The Independent Education Union of Australia, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s 183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s 201(2), the Commission notes that the Agreement covers this organisation.
The Applicant has also made an application pursuant to s.218A to correct errors in the Agreement which were identified after it was made. The application seeks to correct drafting errors in Schedule 1A and Schedule 2 of the Agreement, and to correct the names of the legal entities and schools in Schedule 6 and Schedule 7 that are covered by the Agreement. I am satisfied that the errors identified by the Applicant are obvious errors and irregularities and that it is appropriate to make the correction by varying the Agreement pursuant to s.218A of the Act. An amended version of the Agreement has been filed which incorporates the variation.
The Agreement, as varied, is approved and in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from 9 April 2025. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 31 January 2028.
