Teachers' pay has fallen in real terms since 2010. But has this happened to the same extent in other OECD countries?

OECD data says no. England is an outlier for teacher pay growth 2010-2020

📢Call for evidence:

I am leading an inquiry into the impact of the cost-of-living crisis on university students with the @APPGStudents.  

We want to hear from students, SU’s and universities about their experiences and what should be done:

[UCU @ucu]

Today is #EqualPayDay

Women working in higher education will effectively work the rest of the year for free - earning £4k less than men

It's a scandal. And on Thursday we strike to close the gender pay gap

[Craig Calhoun @craigjcalhoun]

UK academic staff are not paid well by international standards or enough to keep up with UK inflation. Cuts to retirement benefits are cuts to their compensation. This is unjust and threatens universities that have remained excellent while so much has declined. @UCU.

[Beth Winter @BethWinterCynon]

.@UCU's demands in their dispute are reasonable, realistic and affordable.

That's why 50 MPs and Peers have written to @UCEA1 and @UniversitiesUK urging them to invest in their staff.

[UCU @ucu]

Post Graduate Researchers are being denied the rights, protections and benefits available to university staff

It's wrong. Vote YES
