More than 1000 public and private sector teachers rallied on June 30.

They demanded better pay and conditions, describing their workload as "beyond unsustainable".

Chants raised included: "3% not even halfway there, Perrottet you're living on a prayer".

One speaker said: "It's not that the workloads are unsustainable, it's that they are unmanageable".
