“It’s worrying we’ve had more education secretaries in the last year than I’ve got glue sticks in my class…they’re gaslighting teachers to expect them to do more with less.” Mr P MBE tells @Lorraine why he’s been on strike today #SaveOurSchools

This isnt an offer from Government it is an insult. £1000 non-consolidated. 4.5% in September AND UNFUNDED! I will be voting to REJECT. No more pay cuts! A teacher in 6th year: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 £48.5k (from Jan) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 £44K (from Sept) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 £39K Vote no! Full funding and parity is what we need

So now we see the value of education. £1000, before tax, and a below inflation increase for next year of 4.5%. Not fully funded. Less than fire service, doctors, railway workers and the offer to teachers in Wales and Scotland. That’s how little they value education.

What an absolutely shocking offer from Department for Education. You are insulting us. I can’t really afford to strike, but we can’t afford to be treated like this. The offer is NOT fully funded. Did you listen at all?!

Hard to look at the ‘offer’ as anything other than a show of contempt to the profession. Looks like the lowest offer given to any of those previously on strike. Why is that? Gillian Keegan

I REJECT with every bone in my body. This offer is offensive and shows how little we are valued as teachers in England and the crippling effect this UNFUNDED increase (not inline with inflation) will have on schools.

Budgets are already breaking. Recruitment and retention is already breaking. Educators are breaking all around us. This is an utter- and I believe calculated- insult.

Tonight is a reminder that you can switch in minutes to join the National Education Union as your own union has not taken proactive action to address the woeful situation imposed on the teaching profession and join us in creating a bigger voice to strike. We need EVERY teacher #EnoughIsEnough

‘Government makes unfunded offer to English teachers, not inline with Scotland and Wales, and ignores calls for reform to ofsted and workload.’ Corrected it for you BBC News (UK)

Geographers! 🌍 Is technology used well in your school? Our students have iPads and I’d love to increase use of them in the curriculum. Any ideas or examples you have?

- 6.5% would never have been awarded without the 8 days of action by NEU members. - We must go further though. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 teachers deserve pay parity with 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 - We need pay restoration for all school staff (teachers, leaders, support staff) - This isn't just about fairness. It is the
