@NEUnion @GillianKeegan Come and talk @GillianKeegan !?

There are no negotiations and @GillianKeegan refuses to release the pay review body report going as far as to refuse an FOI because it’s apparently not in the public interest. This is why teachers are strike today because we have to #SaveOurSchools 👉If you’re with us like or share this post.

Pocketing 97% of a £320,000 appearance fee while bragging about your oh-so generous donation to a local hospice is deeply cynical stuff, @MattHancock. theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

WATCH: @MaryBoustedNEU corrects Government spin and is just about to get cross. We need a fully funded, above-inflation pay rise as educators really do deserve better. #EducatorsDeserveBetter #PayUp!

I am extremely worried about Jeremy Hunt. He is extremely clever and extremely adept at framing issues and the media discourse around them. I was part of a group of doctors who attempted to speak up against his junior doctor contract imposition. We worked with extremely…

We are aware of technical issues due to the sheer scale of the unprecedented numbers of NEU members voting. Our Digital Team and contractors are working to fix the problems as fast as possible.

‘Oh no I didn’t’ ……. ‘Oh yes you did!’

The teacher pay rises announced by the government represent a 'significant real-terms cut to the salaries of most teachers' and 'further risk the supply line of staff on which schools depend', warn @ASCL_UK, @NEUnion, @NAHTnews, @NASUWT and @CommunityUnion tes.com/magazine/news/…

@miss_mcinerney Anything on funding?

Ok White Paper stuff that’s new and will matter to most schools: 1. Parents of kids falling behind in English and maths will need to be told about it (you probably already do this) AND told what specific interventions they will get to help (you may or may not do this already).
