Basic Information

Each school should elect one of its members to act as the School Representative. They are a vital link in the chain between the National and Local officers of the NUT.

Each school should have its own NUT notice board in the staff room . Make sure you read it regularly !

Your school representative will have a great deal of information which may be of use to you. He/She is your first point of contact for any query you may have.

Apart from the NUT News and posters giving information about local meetings your school Rep. also has a Resource pack containing information under the following headings:

• How the Union is organised
• Records and Subscriptions
• Working with Governors
• Salary matters
• Disciplinary Procedures
• Equal Opportunities
• Pay Structure
• Sick Leave
• Maternity Leave
• Pensions
• Part Time and Job Share
• Notice Periods
• Supply Teachers
• Fixed Term and Temporary Contracts
• Pay and Conditions of Service
• Teachers and Child Protection
