Campaigns

Together, we want to shape the future of education for the benefit of teachers, support staff, leaders and pupils.

There is a crisis in education. Funding cuts are hitting schools, workload is at a record high and the assessment and accountability system is broken, driving excessive workloads. Add to this eight years of barely rising pay and it is no wonder there is a recruitment and retention crisis.

This is why it is so vital that the NEU works with allies to articulate our alternative vision and to win on the key issues of workload, funding, assessment and pay.

Pay campaign

Join us as we campaign to win the full increases recommended by the STRB in 2018 for teachers on the upper payscale and leaders, and for fair pay for all education staff.
Funding campaign

Our schools and colleges need more funding if we are to give our children the education they deserve.
Workload campaign

Thanks to your campaigning, the government has published a workload reduction toolkit - and written to all headteachers with advice on how to take action. Find out what you can do now.
Assessment campaign

Our system is obsessed with league tables, turning children into data points and denying them a broad, stimulating education at key stages in their development.
