On Monday 9 June sixth form college teacher members will open an indicative ballot in support of their 2025/26 pay claim.

To reverse entrenched teacher shortages, the Government must invest properly in education.

The next urgent step must be that a free school meal is available to all children.

The Government must commit to fully funding the pay award. There are no 'efficiencies' to be made at a school level.

Intervening early with the right support must be our goal to prevent mental health issues becoming more complex.

We must stop shifting resources from schools in need to those which are most well off.

The government needs a plan not just for recruitment but retention also, and one that addresses schools‘ real-terms funding shortfall.

Cuts to teaching staff means a cut for children and young people and the education they receive.

The proposals on the table risk making things worse, not better. It is essential that time is taken to listen to the concerns of the profession and get change right.

Teachers are sick of hearing vital information through the press. The full report must be published now, and the Government's intentions on funding made clear.
