FOR ALL OUR CHILDREN

The National Union of Teachers has a long and distinguished history of campaigning for the advancement of education, for all our children. This microsite highlights some of our campaigns: for high quality nursery education; for an end to children being taught in dangerous and unhygienic buildings; and for smaller class sizes.

Partnership with other organisations equally dedicated to achieving progress on particular issues, brings strength and focus to our campaigns. The Union is proud, therefore, of its association with SCOPE and the 'Within Reach' programme aimed at improving access to mainstream schools for pupils with a physical or sensory impairment.

As well as further information on the issues featured here, the Union's award-winning website www.teachers.org.uk contains full details of all our campaigns, policies and services.

The NUT's contribution to the advancement of education is consistent, persistent and successful. The four campaigns and projects featured in this microsite demonstrate that commitment. We ask for your support.
