Workload is a massive problem in schools and a major reason for people leaving the profession.
The NEU has produced a new toolkit, Tackling Workload Together, aimed at helping teachers in schools to solve workload problems collectively.
The document can be downloaded here and paper copies will be going into schools soon.
If you have any questions, please get in touch using the details in the contact us box at the bottom of this email. |
