At the Conservative Party conference this week. Taking our “fighting for their future”campaign to the heart of government. Will they listen? NAHT will never give up arguing for the education system children and the profession deserve. It’s about all of our futures! @NAHTnews

Striking for fair pay. Doing the same job for a less money just because we live & work in NI is not acceptable. @Girl83Tri @CSPNI1 @CSPScot #csp4fairpay #nhspay #equalpay #fairpay
