Schools and colleges need to be effectively led by leaders and managers who are well supported and developed to meet and succeed in an immensely challenging education environment.
Tune in to the NEU's podcast to hear about the issues that members are talking about. Join podcast hosts Molly, Mari and Andy for regular episodes exploring all aspects of what matters most to members.
NEU wants to end the domination of commercial supply agencies by promoting and securing more direct hiring by employers for schools seeking supply staff.
Advice for all supply educators, both supply teachers or support staff, as well as home tutors. Supply members may be directly employed or work through an agency.
Advice on teaching and learning responsibility (TLR) payments and other allowances, including SEN / ALN.
Teaching and learning responsibility payments (TLRs) are an essential part of the teacher pay system.
The NEU is aware that many schools – particularly, though not exclusively, primary schools – claim that movement onto or within the upper pay range (UPR) is dependent on a teacher undertaking additional responsibilities.
A key issue for many teachers is that their school has adopted a pay policy stating that progression on the upper pay range (UPR) should only be considered every two years.
The NEU is deeply concerned that support staff members are regularly working beyond their contracted hours and taking on additional duties outside their job role without pay.
This sets out the procedure for external bodies to raise concerns about the conduct of an NEU representative, whether they are an elected officer of the Union or a member of staff.
The Union recognises that there may be times when members wish to express concerns about union activities and services, including conduct of advice and representation. This procedure sets out the process for raising concerns.
