NEU is the largest single union in the independent sector with over 30,000 members in 1,700 schools. We represent more teachers and support staff working in independent schools than any other union.
Where NEU is recognised for the purpose of collective bargaining, pay awards are negotiated by the school and NEU reps. The right to collective negotiation, under trade union recognition, puts staff in the strongest position to influence decisions affecting their terms and conditions.
How to achieve a union recognition agreement in the independent sector.
Kevin Hannavy, joint NEU rep, reports on the recent successful recognition campaign at Christ’s Hospital School, Sussex
