5 journalists killed in a van marked press - and the BBC says they weren't targeted.
What about the other 145 journalists?
I mean seriously. How do they sleep at night?
The best conversation I have had this week was discussing with one of the 4 year olds I teach if “your nose is the bogies house” anyone have an opinion?
Educators Say…we won’t accept unfunded pay settlements that mean SEND funding is cut
Huge solidarity @NEUnion 6th form striking today for pay parity- & with ucu FE members not on strike but also denied parity. It’s been inspirational to see NEU draw MPs to pickets & lobbying chancellor. As individuals we are vulnerable & tired: collective action is how we get energised & get heard.

Improve productivity how? We already do the most unpaid overtime of any profession. Should I just wander around the shops at weekends teaching kids to read in ASDA? #NEU #Payup
Solidarity with Duncan! #NEU #6thformstrikes
The Government has proposed an unfunded, 2.8% pay increase for teachers next year. Instead of continuing Conservative austerity, the Government must fully fund the above-inflation pay increases desperately needed to value, recruit and retain teachers and school leaders. neu.org.uk/latest/press...
Very much looking forward to united action with Health colleagues. Well said Daniel!

The head of one of these schools ran ofsted. There is no place for this kind of behaviour in education; towards anyone. I hope these young people get justice.

A 2nd day of strike action at SFX College in Balham. All we want is the same funded pay rise offered to school teachers and teachers in academised 6th forms. #payup24 #payjustice #NEU
A great turnout on the picket line at Holy Cross College in Bury, sending a clear message that there is no pay justice without the same pay deal applying to ALL sixth form teachers. The government must pay up now! #PayUp24
Pay justice - it really is just black and white. SFX College staff striking for a 3rd day today for an equal pay rise with school teachers and to defend collective bargaining. #NEU #payup24 @neunion.bsky.social
Absolutely, but I think SEND is the sharp end of the education funding crisis and the new government haven’t got a grip of how serious it is. #SEND #education #NEU
I’m seeing more and more posts from fellow #SENDCos who are no longer able to keep going. These are highly skilled, trained, experienced and very caring professionals who have been broken by an unworkable education system. The government need to fix things. We need funding and to be listened to.
