National Office Bearers
Bailey Riley
President
Starting my tertiary education at Tafe in Bathurst, moving to Sydney and studying at UTS has shaped my understanding of Higher Education in Australia and why we need to continue the fight to make it a truly equitable system. Everyone in Australia deserves a right to Free Education ,every student deserves a support payment that allows them to live comfortably & every student deserves as many chances as they need to succeed. As NUS President I promise to continue to amplify the voices of students and fight to make sure their demands are heard.
Sheldon Gait
General Secretary
I started my journey at RMIT as a TAFE student, brand new to Melbourne after moving from WA. I have been involved with student advocacy and the RMIT University Student Union for several years before moving to the NUS.
I believe in supporting the underdog and giving people a fair go.
Education is the driving force of social mobility in this country. It should be the right of every Australian to access the highest standard of education and the right of every student to be given the greatest chance to succeed in their studies. The National Union of Students was created to defend these principles and this is why I chose to run to be your National General Secretary for 2023
