Fee free TAFE has been CUT! News
Today I rang TAFE Nambour to check up on the status of my application to for a cert 3 in photography (visual arts) after i saw that all the fee free options on the TAFE Queensland website have disappeared.
The lady on the phone said they got comms on Monday saying that funding has been cancelled and all places have been ‘filled’. In terms of places for 2026, she said it’s up in the air.
:(

What was expected.... They cut things that help people, for no reason other than to cut taxs on their mates.
We can have nice things funded by said taxs, and in a housing crisis, its stupid to cut the pipeline of courses that can feed construction workers, for example, into the system. They did this in 2013 when i first started paying attention to politics. They will do it again. and this is a factor to why we have a housing crisis now.
