NASUWT secured compensation totalling almost £15.5m for members across the UK last year. If all employers took seriously their duty of care and legal responsibilities to their employees we would not be forced to pursue legal remedies to get redress for members. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

It was lovely to see primary teachers from across North Tyneside and Newcastle at our breakfast meeting. There was dedicated chat on matters affecting primary colleagues in our area. If you missed it, look out for future events!

It can be challenging to say no. Learning to say no is a vital part of being a good teacher and maintaining your own wellbeing. Without boundaries, you can become overwhelmed and overworked. ALL staff need boundaries because their time & energy has a direct impact on pupils.

I responded to an important debate brought by Sam Rushworth MP on the attainment of boys. We’re working hard to break the link between background and success. I set out how our Curriculum and Assessment Review, RISE teams and more expert teachers will help us reach this goal.
