We did it! And we couldn't have done it without your support!
You can check out the policy change that we won yourself by following this link: https://education.nsw.gov.au/policy-library/policies/pd-2009-0399
There it is in black and white! THANK YOU to all who signed, shared, and platformed the issue.
NSW now joins the ACT, QLD, and VIC in withdrawing support for weapons companies having influence over what is and isn't taught in science class. We think Tasmania may be the next to come to the anti-militarist party. Take a minute today to celebrate!
Predictably though, the same weapons industry sponsored programs are still in NSW schools, and we believe that most teachers are not even aware that they may be in breach of policy by engaging them. It will take continued pressure to make sure that these programs drop their problematic sponsors, and weapons companies are kicked out of the classroom for good.

To get updates, access to resources, and opportunities to contribute to this next phase of the campaign. We are looking to support parents to raise the issue at their school, educators to raise the issue in their staff rooms, and local union branches of educators to pass resolutions and circulate information to other union members.

Until then, however and wherever you can,
#Demilitarise
#Decolonise
#Regenerate
And remember you are loved.
