Independent research shows wide gaps between the earnings of teachers and other professional groups.

A 2.8% rise won’t close that gap. And without new funding, it will just force schools to make cuts.

The government calls it a 2.8% pay rise.

But with no new funding, schools are expected to absorb the cost themselves.

That means cuts to staff, resources or both.

SFX college members braving the cold on the picket line this morning.

School closures resulting from falling pupil rolls could be the biggest threat to London-based educators jobs in 2025. NEU branches like Lambeth are showing that coordinated industrial action can mitigate the impact. This is from the latest edition of Educate magazine 👇🏻

Revealed: the BTECs saved from the chop… for now Popular level 3 qualifications, including 44 BTECs, that were facing the scrap heap have been given a stay of execution

It's good to see recognition that students should be able to choose from a range of qualifications - not just A levels and T levels. This is a win for the #ProtectStudentChoice campaign

Keir Starmer’s Plan for Change | National Education Union Rather than ‘ready for school’, the route to improving children’s outcomes is better investment in the early years sector.

The PM’s talk of “school readiness” misses the point. Poverty, Covid impacts, and service gaps are the real barriers. Instead of slogans, we need:

✅ Proper funding for early years
✅ Support for health needs
✅ Protection for Maintained Nursery Schools

Bolton College Sixth Form teachers continue strike action amid pay dispute A number of teachers at Bolton Sixth Form College walked out again this morning, Tuesday, over a pay dispute in the latest wave of strike action

“We are all teachers doing the same job at the end of the day. For us to give ourselves funding, this would affect the students and come out of the budget meant for staff and equipment.”
Time for government to end the clear pay injustice. #PayUp24

Teachers' call for equal pay as they stage a walk out Teachers at Holy Cross sixth form college in Bury began strike action today, Thursday, after an ongoing pay dispute.

Government should listen to our sixth form college members. Andy was on the picket line and said pay injustice makes him and his colleagues feel less valued: "I don’t necessarily do it for the pay but this is unfair." #PayUp24
