Every teacher, every year, in spreadsheets or on paper.
Every teacher’s work plan in one place, checked against the MEA.
Every year it’s the same three headaches, and they all land in the same few weeks. Here’s where the time goes.
Every teacher, every year, in spreadsheets or on paper.
Showing each plan meets the MEA takes time.
Teachers and managers chasing changes.
There’s a better way. See how MST turns this into one shared, digital workflow.
See how MST helpsMST gives each teacher an annual work plan that allocates their accountable hours across categories. The program lead and teacher negotiate, approve and sign it off — in one place.
Work plans that comply with the Victorian TAFE Teaching Staff Agreement.
Program lead and teacher agree the plan, approve it and sign it off — no emailed spreadsheets.
Re-negotiating creates a new version, so the history is always there.
Automatic emails go out at every step. The signed plan is sent to the teacher, the program lead and HR.
Illustrative example

Each teacher has an annual work plan that allocates their accountable hours across categories. Many TAFEs still build and track these in spreadsheets. MST puts every plan in one place, so the program lead and teacher can negotiate, approve and sign it off together.
Many Victorian TAFEs work to a 1 March deadline for the year’s work plans. MST helps you get every 2027 plan built, checked and signed well before then.
Yes. Most TAFEs start small with one or two departments, get those plans signed, then roll MST out further when they’re ready.
The MEA sets the rules for how teaching staff hours are allocated. MST is built around it, so every work plan is checked against the Agreement before it’s signed. For the detail, refer to the Agreement itself or your HR team.
No. We set MST up with you, alongside the systems you already run — including your student and learning systems.
