Does anyone know what's happening at Veti? (Vocational Education Training Institute). I've heard that teachers have had their salaries cut by 50% and that the conditions there are awful. I'm thinking of applying myself but am having second thoughts.

I heard almost exactly the same, but have not been able to confirm it.

Surely there must be somebody round here who can spill the beans?

I heard that too from someone who works there...lots of contract changes and people being let go and told to reapply for the same positions at half the pay. Not to mention split shift schedules (some hours in the morning and then more in the evenings). I wouldn't bother with the place, it seems to be in turmoil.

Agreed - wouldn't go near the place.
