☀️Is there a maximum classroom temperature? edapt.org.uk/support/know... 🏫The School Premises (England) Regulations 2012 (which applies to maintained schools) do not specify maximum classroom temperatures for any parts of a school.
The @nasuwt-official.bsky.social has also indicated that if the pay award is not fully funded, it will move to ballot members for industrial action as reaffirmed at its 2025 annual conference.
With neither union’s red lines seemingly met, formal ballots remain a possibility. Lots of detail still to come though as the experts like @theifs.bsky.social dig further into the numbers.
And what about teacher pay and the unions? The Spending Review doesn’t fully fund the teacher pay deal, a key concern for unions. @neunion.bsky.social General Secretary @danielkebedeneu.bsky.social told @labouroutlook.bsky.social yesterday:
“If the government does not commit to fully funding this pay award… we are prepared to register a formal dispute over funding.” labouroutlook.org/2025/06/10/r...
Have you seen the new Robinsons ad? 📺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=sO6P... A teacher calls home about behaviour. The parent laughs it off. Meant as a joke, but it landed badly. With behaviour a real challenge, undermining teacher authority feels out of step & it appears to have backfired with teachers.
Interesting discussion on @ttradioofficial.bsky.social this weekend about the role of unions. Edapt was founded in 2011 to support teachers who wanted protection without campaigning. Unions matter, but they’re not for everyone and teachers should have a real choice and they do!
