COPE releases a summary of 2010 activities

COPE is The Council of Pacific Education. And a body of teachers in the pacific have just published the journal of pacific teachers union's latest addition. International Labour Organisation’s Officer Laila HarrĂ© delivered the keynote address, acknowledging that “teacher unions are a substantial component of national trade union movements and enjoy many advantages when it comes to the [ILO] work for social justice.” This is facinating to me because looking through this website I was amazed to see all the teacher union things that were/ are going on. I had no idea that there is even teacher unions but it makes sense when you think about, I just never have. I would reall like to take a look at the journal that was published I bet it is a vary educational and interesting read.
