Improving pay and conditions for teachers and restoring funding for schools must come hand-in-hand 🤝

“We’re being asked to stretch something that’s already at breaking point…” With schools footing at least 1% of this year's pay award, this will mean more cuts to already struggling school budgets Educators are clear: school budgets simply don’t have £460 million to spare 👇️

‘Changing and supporting the next generation’ won’t be possible if brutal school cuts continue at this rate @Suella_Braverman. Successive governments have stripped school funding to the bone. 53 MPs have committed to supporting educators in reversing these cuts. ➡️ Will you?

“It’s tragic, isn’t it?” Schools across Essex have lost £164.4 MILLION in funding since 2010.

1 number = 1,000 stories: 🧱crumbling classrooms ✂️ teachers without essentials ❌subjects slashed from curriculums Across the country the message in schools is clear: we can’t go on like this.

The countdown is on. Will you restore school funding, @andyburnham.bsky.social? ?

5 million leaflets ➡️ £20 billion in school funding restored.

SEND support needs to be fully funded. *Every* child deserves to have the support they need to thrive in school.

🗣️🗣️🗣️ This is what parents have to say about school funding cuts.

This is why the School Cuts Summer Day of Action mattered. When communities hear the truth about school cuts, they show up. Together, we can change the trajectory of school funding.

What a day 💪☀️ From town centres to festivals, high streets to community stands… we got people talking and engaged with the campaign. The more people who know, the harder we push for proper school funding, and the closer we get to winning.

Only one thing left to say: thank you ☀️ On Saturday, all across the country, hundreds of people made noise in their communities for proper school funding. Hundreds of conversations, hundreds of reasons why we need to #StopSchoolCuts. We’ll keep pushing until we win. Thank you.

⚽ 1 state school. 2 England captains. £1.3 million in cuts. The school that built Harry Kane and David Beckham has faced devastating funding cuts since 2010, and it isn't the only one. The next generation of sportspeople needs early support to thrive.

“I can’t do it anymore”. 😢 Teachers, children and schools deserve better.

The Government has announced that it won’t fully fund teacher salaries next year. With inflation and energy costs already running out of control, this means that headteachers will be forced to slash an additional £460 million from their bottom lines and lose as many as 8,300 vital school staff.

🫠 It’s not just the temperatures that are rising: expectations on schools are higher each year, and the budget? Falling more and more behind.

🚨 We want something simple: for the aspirations of the Government to meet that of teachers across the country. Is that too much to ask? #StopSchoolCuts

📚✂️💰 We think too many schools would win at this game. How many of these have you seen at your school?

15 years of cuts. When will the Government turn the page on school funding? @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social @ed-miliband.bsky.social

Do you have a teacher who changed your life? We risk so much more than grades when schools aren’t properly funded: it’s life-changing opportunities for young people that disappear. Every child deserves to have someone who believes in them.
