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…

DfE must recognise funding issues to tackle behaviour, says NASUWT

Union says funding is key to improving school safety and warns teachers need ‘the backing of ministers when it comes to dealing with violent and disruptive behaviour’

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. – at Birmingham, England

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%).
