Download our latest newsletter

This newsletter focuses on teachers’ pay. Please download and circulate it to colleagues in your school by hard copy or email. Thank you.

We are producing a model letter for members to sign and send to your governing body.

We are also writing to our MPs asking them to meet a delegation of teachers to talk about pay and workload.

BUDGET DAY PROTEST: 23rd March 2022

We would like to encourage colleagues to join the Budget Day Protest next Wednesday – see flyer below for details. Please download and share with colleagues.

TACKLING WORKLOAD

The Department for Education has updated its Workload Reduction Toolkit.

This has been sent to headteachers and sits quite well with our own Value Education, Value Educators documents.

We recommend that Reps discuss these documents with members and identify areas where your school could make improvements in policies and practices that can reduce workload and improve well-being.

Both pay and workload are on the agenda for our meeting on 28th March, which I hope you will be able to attend.

We are keen to visit schools and meet with Reps and members, so do let us know if you would like us to come into your school.
