Schools will be relieved to hear that they will be fully reimbursed for the rise in employer NIC announced in the Budget after experts said it could cost schools £200m School leaders were told the rise would be fully funded in a briefing last night politicshome.com/news/article/s…

How far they go on restoring control of admissions to LA will be key in supporting inclusion and removing the ability for some to ‘game play’

I’m very excited about this one. @NEUnion members interested in tackling sexism sign up now!

Really pleased to represent our 500,000 members at today's meeting. When comparing the previous 14 years, having a Secretary of State embarking on the journey of social dialogue is most welcome. Together we can co-create an education system that centres our children.

According to @TeacherTapp, 69% of secondary teachers say SATs data is an unreliable way to predict GCSE grades. It’s time to change the system. Join our campaign 👉morethanascore.org.uk/sign-up/

What about Support Staff pay? Support Staff need a better deal. I hope the voices of 60k NEU support staff members are represented when the SSSNB is established. However, we need much closer working across the unions. NEU are committed to this. I have written to sister unions in regards to balloting collectively in the fight for a fair pay deal for Support Staff.

We managed to have a chat with Tony Vaughan MP about LGBT+ inclusion in education at Folkestone Pride today 🌈@anthonymv1 #folkestonepride #inclusion #nationaleducationunion

We’re hanging out at @pridefolkestone today - come and say hello and see what we’re doing for LGBTQ+ inclusion. There may be NEU Pride merch for members…

This is a really dangerous proposal. Does nothing to help solve the retention and recruitment crisis but sticks a thumb in leak of one trust… 👇🏼
