I have just voted in the @NEUnion preliminary #PayUp ballot!

@GillianKeegan if this Government won't save our schools and colleges, we will. #InvestInEducation

Just to be clear - that none of the £900m per annum for schools or of the £285m per annum for FE/6th form colleges is coming from increased fees for migrants.

[Kevin Courtney @cyclingkev]

That money would cover 3.5% for most schools.

NAHT and ASCL tell us most heads had budgeted for 3.5% pay rises.

The £900m extra that NEU members action has won is to cover the 3% increase from 3.5% to 6.5%

[Daniel Kebede @DanielKebedeNEU]

How wages have faired.

MPs: Pay ⬆️ 22% in real terms since 2010

Bankers: Bonuses ⬆️ 101% in cash terms since 2008

CEOs: Pay ⬆️ 23% in 2022 alone

Teachers: Pay 🔻 24% since 2010

Nurses: Pay 🔻 20% since 2010

Whose wages are causing the inflation?

THE CALL

Imagine having a really important interview that you’ve prepared years for and you badly want to ace. You’ve worked as hard as you could and have committed your life to it.

Imagine every night going to bed, wondering if it’ll be the next day. But it doesn’t come that next day, the next month or even the next year. The pressure builds and you start to jump when the phone goes between 10am-12pm every day, ready to drop everything for the interview to start.

Imagine knowing that when it finally does come that there’s a good chunk of luck involved and it’ll depend on who interviews you on that day and what they happen to focus on and see.

Imagine praying for one of the good interviewers but you end up with one of the bad ones, who doesn’t listen and has their own agenda but there’s nothing you can do about it.

Imagine it leaves you in pieces and everyone know it’s not fair, but, so be it, and all that will now come your way.

Imagine knowing that that you can’t tell anyone the outcome of the interview, and you have to carry that around, on your own, for what feels like forever.

Imagine what that does to a person.

Imagine a better way.

@GillianKeegan Easiest ‘reject’ I’ve given in my life. Insulting offer. It’s the kids who will suffer from your 4% unfunded offer & those with SEND who will suffer the most due to inevitable redundancies that will limit vital support. #valueourkids #payup

[MrStewHistory @MrStewHistory]

It is the easiest decision to REJECT this insulting government pay ‘offer’ for us teachers. Unfunded. A grand as a pay off?! They even tried to force unions to present it in a neutral or positive way! Solidarity with fellow members in the @NEUnion ✊ #PayUp #RejectTheOffer #NEU

[Mr G @DeputyGrocott]

NEU members, have you voted to accept or reject?

[Ceridwen Eccles @Teacherglitter]

Tonight is a reminder that you can switch in minutes to join the @NEUnion as your own union has not taken proactive action to address the woeful situation imposed on the teaching profession and join us in creating a bigger voice to strike. We need EVERY teacher #EnoughIsEnough

[Hannah @missradders]

If the word unfunded is in any offer we MUST reject. We cannot keep robbing from the kids just so we can pay our bills.

That offer is insulting too.

[Daniel Kebede @DanielKebedeNEU]

This isnt an offer from Government it is an insult.

£1000 non-consolidated.
4.5% in September
AND UNFUNDED!

I will be voting to REJECT. No more pay cuts!

A teacher in 6th year:
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 £48.5k (from Jan)
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 £44K (from Sept)
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 £39K

Vote no! Full funding and parity is what we need

[Secret Headteacher @secretHT1]

So now we see the value of education.

£1000, before tax, and a below inflation increase for next year of 4.5%.

Not fully funded.

Less than fire service, doctors, railway workers and the offer to teachers in Wales and Scotland.

That’s how little they value education.

We’re striking because we have to, the system is broken,
And for the love of our children, our profession has spoken.
(9/9)

[Dave McPartlin @dave_mcpartlin]

We’re striking for the leaders who go home in tears,
Because of high stakes accountability and their Ofsted fears.
For the leaders who know what it should really be like,
But their ideas aren’t listened to and we end up on strike.
(8/9)

[Dave McPartlin @dave_mcpartlin]

We’re striking for the leaders with the impossible task,
Of keeping everyone going with an impossible ask.
For the leaders to get even more out of their shattered staff,
Balance school improvement with wellbeing? You’re having a laugh.
(7/9)
