Fantastic to hear from Nadia Whittome MP at the @neueastmidlands.bsky.social ITT/ECT conference!

“When education is under funded, undermined and even attacked, the ripple effect goes wider than schools […] we must remain vigilant”

This isn’t just about pay, it’s about the quality of education/resources, workload and retention of teachers. Currently, 1/4 leave within three years of qualification and 1/3 within five years. Our young people deserve better and we deserve to teach them in a healthy, manageable way. Let’s do this!✊🏻

What is a preliminary online ballot?

A preliminary ballot determines the likelihood of success for a formal statutory postal ballot. A successful preliminary ballot will put pressure on the govt to grant teachers a fully funded, significantly above-inflation pay rise.

New year, new government, schools still burdened with the same old problems...

Our message to the government is clear: do the right thing. Schools can't make more 'efficiencies'. Fully fund fair pay now.

If nothing changes, our indicative ballot opens on 1 March.

Leicestershire members were part of a group of New and Young educators who went to the East Midlands’ Christmas social last night. A lovely way to mark the festive season with union pals!

#solidarity to our striking members in non-academised sixth form colleges in the county and around the country.

They are going into christmas without a pay award, a shocking state of affairs.

They deserve the 5.5% like everyone else.
