More than 100 teachers gathered at Milton Ulladulla Ex-Servos to vote on an offer from the NSW Education Department.
Teachers voted yes to the offer of an 2.5% annual increase for three years from January 1, 2017.
NSW Teachers Federation president Maurie Mulheron said 99 per cent of teachers voted yes.
““The offer teachers have voted on today delivers real salary increases, locked in and secured for three years and the preservation of all working conditions,” he said.
The stopwork meetings were held at 211 venues across NSW.
The meetings were designed to minimise disruption to regular school life, as all teachers returned to school following.
