City of York NUT

For teachers past, present and future and for those just interested in education.

[James McAsh @mcash]

SATS = menace in the classroom 👹

Toxic tests terrorise kids & turn them into cogs in the capitalist machine ⚙️

@NEUnion are taking them on. The left should pay attention.

Me for @novaramedia 👇

Thank you to everyone fighting back against the damaging exams culture in schools. Protecting the mental health of young people should be the priority, not data on a spreadsheet. #morethanascore #NEU19

[NEU York @york_neu]

Educators of #York! You've made it! You've worked for longer than all the other schools around the country but now enjoy your rest, you deserve it! 🐣👩‍🏫��‍🏫🕺🛀
If you've got any thoughts for us to take to @NEUnion conference along with @NEUnorthyorks next week. Let us know!!!

🏫🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️💰@YorkLabourCllrs sign @NEUnion letter calling for end to 'school funding crisis' https://t.co/HfGcCoeZo5 #SchoolsJustWannaHaveFunds

[Kevin Courtney @cyclingkev]

Wow! Lord Agnew’s cost cutting advisors told schools to:

💔cut portions for school lunch!
💔split pupils charity collections with the school!
💔replace teachers with term time only support staff!

Doesn’t this show how low the Govt has fallen in cutting children’s education?

[Kallum Taylor @Kallum_Of_York]

I just signed the open letter from councillors across the country to @DamianHinds demanding more money for education from the #spendingreview. Thanks to my @YorkLabourCllrs colleague @JonnyPolitics for flagging up. @York_NEU #SchoolsJustWannaHaveFunds

[Anne Swift @swift4_anne]

I received an invite for my school to participate in baseline pilot. I said "No". It's a waste of time, money, unreliable & inappropriate!

[Amy @amyk21]

So close! If you haven’t signed yet please do ✊🏻 #investdontcut #schoolcuts

[Anna Perrett @AnnaPerrett]

Wouldn't it be a shame if this move by @JamesCleverly MP backfired and led to more people accessing the school cuts website (https://t.co/q1Y4OTIZGt) and seeing how little the Conservative government wants to invest in our children's futures.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Labour will end the failed free-market experiment in higher education, crack down on vice-chancellors’ pay and improve academic diversity.

Education is a right for the many, not a privilege for the few.

@heidiallen75 walk into any state school in the country... talk to any @NEUnion member anywhere and they will all say what they've been saying for quite a while now. Austerity has failed people! #justnoticedpoverty 😡

[National Education Union @NEUnion]

Our teachers have been working long hours for many years, but more than half of their time is not actually spent teaching @DamianHinds

We need to continue to put pressure on govt. #HandsUp #Workload.
Vote ✔️now.

[Angela Rayner @AngelaRayner]

The system has always been skewed in favour of those with money & influence. A Government’s job is to make it fairer not to ingrain it. Well done Lucy for exposing just how far backwards we’re going under the Tories. We need Labour’s NES that will work for everyone.

[City of York NUT @NUTyork]

To all the teachers of #York . Have a fantastic, restful Christmas from all of your friends in the @NUTonline . As you will know, the NUT is joining with the ATL to form the @NEUnion to tackle the ills in teaching today. Please follow @york_neu for the new year and the new union!

[Cllr Jonny Crawshaw @JonnyPolitics]

I'm proud to support #HandsUp campaign. School and college staff see the negative impact Government funding cuts have on children and young people - that's why more and more are saying 'enough is enough'. Please support them too https://t.co/JaxFWyCTtP #HandsUp

[Angela Rayner @AngelaRayner]

Totally agree. Councils are unrecognisable now. So many redundancies and loss of vital services.

[Angela Rayner @AngelaRayner]

The PM carries on as if nothing has happened, after three significant unprecedented defeats in the commons. Tories have been behaving delusional for some time but this is on a whole new level, it's a nightmare scenario where the same mantra is repeated over and over again 😩

Our thoughts are with Karen’s family and her friends and colleagues. @eboractrust @haxbyrdprimary @YO304YL @robwilkprimary @CityofYork #York https://t.co/CelqjPiHq0
