Uk Education Union Ltd.

The NEU was formed in 2017 following the amalgamation of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) and the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL). As the largest education union, we have a powerful voice and have been effective in winning improvements to our members’ working conditions and shaping an education system that works for all. What we do Represent you in the workplace One of the main roles of a trade union is collective bargaining. That means the union negotiates with employers on behalf of members on issues like health and safety, pay and working arrangements, and redundancies. To enter into collective bargaining, a union has to be recognised by an employer. The NEU is recognised in most schools and colleges where our members work. If there is an NEU rep in your school, they will be able to represent you if you are facing any form of disciplinary action or if you have a grievance against your employer. Represent you to Government and policy makers As the largest education union in the UK, the NEU has a powerful voice when speaking to Government and policy makers. As a member of the NEU, you will have the opportunity to shape education policy and make your voice heard by responding to surveys, attending meetings and conferences, and sharing your views and experiences with the union.
