Years of austerity have left schools underfunded. Lack of equipment, dilapidated facilities and a reduction in staffing mean that our children are being sold short. Failure to fully fund the STRB is unacceptable and will require a response.

And once again, the school teacher's pay review is leaked to the Times, despite the professional bodies requesting that it be published weeks ago.

This isn't how education in England should be run. This is a farce. Teachers deserve to be treated respectfully by the DfE.
