Technical and Further Education (TAFE) teachers are set to be paid the same as their public school counterparts after winning a 21 percent pay rise over four years in Victoria.

A 14 percent pay boost will kick in during the first 14 months of a new enterprise agreement, plus greater leave entitlements, if the workforce ticks off a new pay deal struck between their union and the state government.
