Today we remember all those who gave their lives to resist fascism and defend freedom, equality and democracy.

As we honour their sacrifice, we reaffirm our commitment to stand against racism, hatred and division in all its forms.

@bphillipsonmp.bsky.social says she’s “ready to take on the unions.”
The @neunion.bsky.social represents 500,000 educators who stand up for children every day.
If the Education Sec wants better reading outcomes, she should back teachers with time, trust & resources - not more tests. #ValueEducation

Shame on those employers/schools who use "Support Plans" to push out experienced teachers due to them being being higher cost!

Support plans ‘misused’ to ‘force out’ teachers from schools, say campaigners

Support plans ‘misused’ to ‘force out’ teachers from schools, say campaigners
Former teachers have turned campaigners to call out the misuse of support plans which they say are being 'weaponised' to 'force out' staff from schools

📉 Fewer teachers, fewer joining, more part-time.
📈 Class sizes rising, experience walking out the door.
📢 The crisis isn’t over.
Real-terms pay cuts & crushing workload are driving staff out.
We need urgent investment to value, recruit & retain teachers. #SaveOurSchools #NEU
🧑‍🏫 The number of teachers in England’s schools has shrunk for the first time in years, as new data suggests recruitment and retention pressures may have eased slightly

The government’s announcement on the teacher pay offer for September still falls short. A pay award that isn’t fully funded means more cuts to staff and resources. Schools deserve better.

Labour’s pledge to recruit 6,500 extra teachers is already under pressure. A new report warns it won’t meet growing demand — with secondary schools and colleges facing worsening shortages.

‘Remember the dead, fight for the living’ on Workers Memorial Day when we remember all those who went out to work and never came home. ✊

Key to keeping people safe at work is a strong, organised union in every workplace.

We quote Bridget Phillipson’s own words from 2023 back to her:”She told us to wait for the independent pay review body’s recommendations. Those recommendations have been made and now she refuses to publish them. Will she come clean….and publish the recommendations today?” #NEU #FundFairPay

The School Teachers’ Review Body (STRB) has made its recommendation and the report is sitting on Bridget Phillipson’s desk. We ask the Education Secretary to publish the report now and fund fair pay for teachers and our schools. #NEU2025 #FundFairPay
