New South Wales Consolidated Acts

TEACHING SERVICE ACT 1980 - SECT 44

44 The Teaching Service

(1) The Teaching Service of New South Wales consists of the persons who are for the time being employed under this Division.

(2) Those persons are taken to be employed by the Government of New South Wales in the service of the Crown, except as provided by section 12.

(3) This Division does not affect any other method (statutory or otherwise) by which a person holds a position, or is otherwise employed, in the Teaching Service.

Note: For example, Parts 3.2 (Staff mobility) and 3.3 (Miscellaneous provisions relating to public sector staff) of the Public Sector Employment and Management Act 2002 apply to the Teaching Service (which is a “public sector service” within the meaning of that Act). In particular, sections 86-88 of that Act provide for external and internal transfers (including secondments and temporary assignments) of public sector staff.
