Assessment campaign
After Covid-19, we need reform of our assessment and exams systems to make them fit for the future.
Your NEU is a campaigning union with a clear vision of what our education system should look like.
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.
After Covid-19, we need reform of our assessment and exams systems to make them fit for the future.
The NEU is campaigning for pay progression for all eligible staff, implementation of the national pay increase for all staff and to ensure employers are using the national pay scales.
The NEU’s No Child Left Behind campaign is fighting to break down the barriers poverty puts up around equal access to education.
