How am I not surprised? "Government accused of covering up schools cuts with misleading figures" #HandsUp#EnoughIsEnough#SchoolCuts https://t.co/1y2ciB13Ix
Big rise in number of primary schools investigated for “over aiding” children in SATs. @MoreThanScore quoted here on problems of high stakes, poor quality accountability.

Petition: Increase funding for schools https://t.co/2N4EmEaVkj Hugely important that this petition reaches 10,000 signatures. Tables need turning and schools need money #schoolcuts#littleextras
The govt is giving a one off payment £400m for #littleextras, but this fails to address the school and college funding crisis. To receive your ballot email or letter, it is vital that your details are up to date. #HandsUp

Calling all National Education Union Reps...
Your members should get a text Friday morning which will allow them to vote in our indicative ballot.
So Friday is a very good day to call a school or college union meeting.
#FundingFriday
NEU members should recently have received an email (subject: "Your indicative ballot paper is inside - please use it") with a link to a short survey asking your opinion on school funding. It's only four questions long and took me about 30 seconds to complete. #HandsUp
If you think what’s happening to school budgets is wrong.
If you think the Government should put it right.
If you think we should work with parents and others.
If you think Enough is Enough.
Then Vote YES.
Quote tweet and say you’ve voted. #HandsUp
These teachers are passionate about our children's education, but enough is enough.
📽️ Watch and share this video now, and find out why we're putting our #HandsUp✋ and asking our members whether it’s time for strike action #SchoolCuts✂️
Don’t forget if you’re an @ATLUnion@NEUnion member cast your vote in the executive election! These are people who will represent your views for the next two years! #UseYourVote
The Conservative party got 80 odd retweets for their message that school funding is a ok.
My quote tweet of them got 560+ retweets.
The Conservatives and the Govt need to stop spinning and start listening.
The funding crisis in schools is terrible for pupils and for staff.
It’s time to take a stand.
Vote YES in the National Education Union indicative ballot. Enough is Enough.
Look for your email from the NEU. Talk to your colleagues. Pls RT
Really? Schools are facing big cuts this year & last year there were 66,000 more pupils but:
😱5,400 FEWER teachers
😱2,800 FEWER teaching assistants
😱1,400 FEWER support staff
😱1,200 FEWER auxiliary staff
Children have one chance to go to school - the Govt is failing them
The online indicative ballot is now open and will run until early January 2019. If you don't receive an email or a letter by 30 November, please let us know https://t.co/pPFXidN8Do

Are you an NEU rep? 👀 Look out for your reps pack about the indicative ballot, landing in schools from today, including:
Poster for your union notice board
FAQS
Application forms
Make sure you check your school and college post for an envelope marked like this #HandsUp✋
NAHT opposes this #MultiplicationTest.
It narrows maths assessment, ignores the linked topics of division and fractions, and tells teachers nothing they don’t know already.
An enormous waste of time, and of £5million+ of public money.
