Fair Pay & Funding + Reduced Workload. Invite The NEU To Talk To Staff. Agree To Send A Letter To Local MP. Ask Governors To Do The Same.
Campaigning With Headteachers’ Unions On Fair Funding & Pay
Both ASCL (usually secondary headteachers and senior teachers) and the NEU are moving towards an indicative national ballot. All three unions have written a joint letter to MPs.
The Government’s own education review body recommended 3.5% for all teachers, fully funded. Damion Hinds has said:
- 3,5% for main scale
- 2% for UPS
- 1.5% for Leadership
- 2% for TLRs
But schools must find the first 1% from an already reduced budget! In addition, he hasn’t funded the inadequate support staff pay rise. Schools have already had an 8% cut in funding, this additional pressure on the school budgets will lead to further job cuts, increased class sizes and cuts in provision. Our pupils are suffering now. Forcing schools to find the extra money at the expense of pupils’ education when 33% of them live in poverty1 is a disgrace.
Damion Hinds ignoring his own expert review body will mean; more teachers will leave the profession and more workload for those that stay.
