Pupil behaviour won't improve unless the government tackles school funding, @PatrickR_NASUWT has warned. The outgoing general secretary of @NASUWT also repeated concerns of a "surge" in redundancies, as the union told Tes last week. tes.com/magazine/news/genera…

Human rights partner @RBraadshaaw is leading a claim with teachers' union @NASUWT on behalf of members who are unable to get divorced due to delays in pension valuation. He told @BBCNews they've been 'let down' by those responsible for the scheme. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y0…

Members at Coventry School Foundation are taking strike action today over attempts to force them to choose between their pension and their pay. Teachers should not have to choose between being worse off now or worse off in the future. @NASUWTWestMids
Pickets out in force this morning at Coventry School Foundation sites at Bablake and King Henry VIII, striking against loss of pension rights. Eight more strike days are planned this month! Solidarity! #NASUWT #NEU #TPS #CSF

Members at Gable Hall School in Essex have been locked out today for taking action to stand up against excessive workload. The employer should be focusing on working with us to address teachers' legitimate concerns rather than employing these bullying tactics.

Parent disengagement with education is driving a 'significant increase' in unauthorised pupil absence, which in turn is adding notably to #teacher workload. Research findings from @NASUWT offer useful insights into #school attendance crisis: buff.ly/3ZmhifH #Teachers

There's also a strong feeling that pupils aren't supported enough by external agencies. 64% of teachers said long waiting lists for pupils with mental health issues have an impact, along with cuts to external services (63%) and difficulty obtaining SEN assessments (35%).

“We need for a national mission to tackle absence from school and to make regular school attendance the norm, not the exception, for all children and young people,” says @PatrickR_NASUWT. If you'd like to know more about our findings, drop us a line at press@mail.nasuwt.org.uk
