What to do on April 24th

WITHDRAW YOUR LABOUR

Join your colleagues at the rally in LONDON.

Defend education - the professional response.
No pay cuts for
teachers!
Year on year pay cuts mean:
1. Teachers and their families facing a downwards spiral
in their income
2. Younger teachers particularly facing
accumulating debt
3. Encouragement to “compete” with other
teachers for performance related pay, inadequate
TLRs etc
4. Discouragement to young graduates to join the
teaching profession and resulting in teacher
shortages, increasing class sizes, lack of personal attention for pupils and
increase in workload and working hours.


To defend education, to win a good local
state school for every community, we
have to defend teachers’ pay.
It’s never an easy decision to strike
– but we are left with no alternative.
It’s the professional thing to do!
