A Manifesto for Education

Whoever forms the next Government, it must work with Welsh Government to give our children the education they deserve.

In our Manifesto for Education, we outline the top ten policies we would like to see from a new Government.

From school cuts, to child poverty, ALN support to workload, action needs to be taken if we are to tackle the growing crisis in our schools and colleges.

Please share this manifesto with fellow educators, parents, family and friends – as well as your local Parliamentary candidate and ask for support. 

NEU Cymru evidence to the IWPRB 2024

NEU Cymru has sent written evidence to the IWPRB calling for a fully funded, above-inflation pay rise that constitutes a meaningful step towards a long-term correction in pay and significant improvements in workload.  The NEU Cymru evidence sets out the overwhelming evidence in support of our call for urgent improvements to teacher pay and conditions to repair the damage to teacher pay and address the recruitment and retention crisis.  Members’ experiences and voices are included in the NEU Cymru evidence. 

NEU Cymru has also submitted supplementary evidence to the IWPRB which addresses the Welsh Government’s evidence to the IWPRB.
