Kevin Courtney opening up National Education Union #NEUSupportstaff Conference, a decade of austerity has seen 15k support staff cuts, education establishments can't operate without it's support staff, if you haven't joined a union yet, now is the time

Wishing all support staff a great NEU Support Staff Conference today! National Education Union

#NEUsupport19

We need investment in education and reform for the better at the next general election. We are not party political but it is important we campaign for the education sector to have real focus (no matter which party). #NEUsupport19

There was a leaked document from Downing St suggesting TA numbers need to be cut in schools - that is completely unacceptable and we need to challenge this as a profession and as a union #NEUsupport19

Although there has been a boost in school funding, it does not do enough and there will still be massive shortfalls in many schools Kevin Courtney #NEUsupport19

Very important bringing up the leaked document, 15k support staff jobs have been cut yet the government says 'there are too many TAs', I don't think they understand how valuable all support staff are

In case anyone hasn't read it yet, here is my analysis of the leaked document #NEUsupport19 x.com/karamballes/st…

Have a great day of CPD and networking! Wishing @KatieH36NEU all the best in the chair! #NEUSupport2019
