The Office of Government Property says £7bn is needed to maintain the school estate. This government spends a third of that.

It's not just RAAC. The National Audit Office advises that 700k pupils are in schools in desperate need of repair.

Our letter to the PM today.

Every time a class gets bigger, the quality of education for each child is reduced. Inadequate funding has led to an explosion of class sizes. Fund schools properly. #SaveOurSchools #DoYourJobGill #payupnow

[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?

[SWLancsNEU @SWlancsNEU]

@amymayforrester Yes. The government should properly fund educators and schools, then it wouldn't be an issue.

[National Education Union @NEUnion]

If we are to win, it is vital that you vote: post your vote asap so that it is counted. The envelope will be marked ‘YOUR NEU BALLOT PAPER ENCLOSED’.

We urge you to again vote in favour of strike action for a fully funded, above-inflation pay rise. #PayUpNow #SaveOurSchools

[National Education Union @NEUnion]

Today, @EndChildPoverty published new figures showing that 4.2m children are living in poverty. This can’t go on any longer.

We are calling on the Govt to scrap the two child limit for benefit payments, immediately lifting 250,000 children out of poverty.”#NoChildLeftBehind

[SWLancsNEU @SWlancsNEU]

Teachers: get your ballot in the post.
Support staff: look out for your text and email from Wednesday.
