Outgoing AEU President Andrew Gohl announced the new candidates for the 2007 AEU Leadership elections to be conducted later this year at a well-attended wine-tasting and fundraiser last Friday.
Current AEU Womens’ Officer Correna Haythorpe intends to stand as a candidate for the position of President. Correna has developed an extensive understanding of the issue of work and family balance and understands the workload issues that are faced by all educators under an increasingly complex education environment.
As AEU President Correna will be able to lead AEU members in a struggle to regain professional control over working lives and restore balance with family and personal life.
It is time for a female President for the AEU.
Marcus Knill and Anne Crawford were also introduced as the male and female Vice President candidates.
Marcus Knill has served AEU members as male Vice President for two years and has managed a strong curriculum focus and supported AEU principals.
Anne Crawford is a respected educator who has a long history of strong advocacy in Equal Opportunity and inclusion of disadvantaged groups in education including vociferous support for Aboriginal people. Anne has recently worked as an AEU Organiser.
