After 44 years teaching, 27 as principal and authored six education books today I was told I can not teach in NSW schools because I haven't paid NESA for their 'support'. I wonder why there is a shortage of teachers?

I got my final letter confirming my separation from the NSW Department of Education yesterday. Not even signed or attributed to a person, let alone the Minister or Secretary. 29 years. Here is the last part:
