NEU Torfaen

Torfaen branch of @NEUnion, bringing together education professionals for unity and better conditions. #ValueEducation

These are not isolated issues. They are the symptom of 14 years of Government underfunding and neglect.

The Government must invest £4.4 billion to make school buildings and facilities fit to educate our children.

Today is #InternationalRomaniDay

We must do much more for Gypsy Roma and Traveller children in Education:

- GRT pupils are 10x less likely to go to university than peers
- GRT pupils at least 9x more likely to be excluded
- 1 in 5 GRT pupils felt had to leave school due to bullying
- GRT education services cut to the bone

⚠️@NEUnion support staff – we need your vote!

Vote in our preliminary ballot to back recognised unions’ above-inflation pay claim, and to demand Government commits further funding to improve staffing levels.

Enough is enough – 🗳️vote for change NOW.

The @NEUnion has long called for #Justice4Windrush.

The national scandal of Windrush must not be forgotten: schools can play a vital role in ensuring the contributions of the Windrush generation are remembered.

On Tuesday @NEUnion delegates at #NEU2024 voted to #AbolishOfsted.

@DanielKebedeNEU spoke to @itvnews ‘We want to see an inspectorate bring its expertise rather than its judgement.’

It is time for an alternative to school accountability that is supportive, effective and fair.

We spoke to Ewan, a teacher from Hackney, about why educators should join the NEU and attend conference. #NEU2024

#NEU2024 is debating the crisis in SEND funding. Vital SEND provision is insufficient, leaving thousands without appropriate support.

£12.2 billion is needed to revere the impact of Government cuts, including £4.6 billion in High Needs funding 👉 https://t.co/yZZgg4Oyt9

🎧@DanielKebedeNEU chats about teacher pay on @BBCRadio4 👇

“Teacher pay has plummeted by 25% over the last decade. Morale is at an all-time low., there’s a crisis in recruitment and retention and what we are seeing is the Government restricting what the independent pay review body can award.” #InvestInEducation #NEU2024

Today at #NEU2024 delegates voted to take the next steps in our #PayUp24 campaign.

All eyes are now on @GillianKeegan and the Government to ensure that a fully funded pay award is recommended for teachers.

Great speech by Anurag Khahra from North Somerset at #NEU24 about why concern with #Palestine is relevant for education workers in the UK. I temporarily forgot that I was watching on a screen rather than in the hall, and started clapping.

Standing room only at the #BeyondExamFactories fringe.

Offering positive solutions for different ways to assess.

Different is not impossible because it already exists!

Real appetite from @NEUnion members for change and for their expertise to be shared and used
