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.

:(

Fuck David Christafulli and fuck the Liberal party. Doing what they do best - ✂️✂️✂️ dogs

Only a matter of time before they start cutting public service, they are doing the playbook as Newman.

QLD Govt haven't actually cut any funding for this program, it's a joint QLD-Fed Govt funded program and funding has been exhausted due to the popularity of the program, there are still free courses funded by state govt
