Officers

The National Education Union is led by its members. National officers guide the activities of the union and help to set policy, while local officers run districts and branches across the country.

Officer resources

Potentially sensitive advice and guidance for NEU officers is held on our secure Sharepoint website. This information was previously held behind a login on the teachers.org.uk website. The first time you visit the link below, you'll be prompted to request access. This needs to be manually granted, a one-time-only process that will normally be completed by the next working day.

Access officers resources

Bulk email and access to data

NEU officers can now send bulk email to members in their district by using Action Network. Member data on the system is available to officers who have been elected as NEU secretaries, assistant secretaries and membership secretaries.  We now have available Action Network help guides to help you with using the system. 

Find your members' data

Your district page

Every NEU district has its own web page on the NEU website. These can be found from the district pages listing or by using the search facility. A step by step guide on how to access and edit your content can be found in district page guide.  For your access login details, please email website@neu.org.uk with your preferred contact email and a password reset link will be emailed to you.

NEU business cards

Officers can now order 'business' style cards for local officers in districts and, where necessary, for officers at branch level. 

Order here
These requests will be managed by Despatch, Head Office.

Adopting this approach allows us to bulk purchase the cards at a cost that is advantageous to the Union. In the first instance we will supply each person with the option of ordering multiples of 100 or 200 cards. The cost of producing these will be deducted from your local subs payment.

Membership factsheet for officers

The NEU’s Recruitment and Membership Department has developed downloadable fact sheet on some of the key changes which will affect ATL and NUT legacy members as they enter the NEU’s membership year running from the 1st January 2019 to 31st August 2019.

This is intended as a tool for local officers to help with enquires they receive from members. This information will also form the basis for communication to members regarding these changes.

We welcome your feedback on this document. Please use the form below to provide feedback, especially if you feel there is a gap in the information provided which you think your members will raise in relation to their membership.
