• The NUT is one of most democratic trade unions in the country. We hold elections to the National Executive every two years.
  
  
• Many members were angry last year because nothing was done to improve pay - especially in London.
• Many believe that the Union does not resist workload pressures strongly enough.
  
• Many think that more pressure should be put on the Government to give teachers better PAY and CONDITIONS. Only this will improve recruitment/
  
• The balance on the Executive against those who want the Union to be more radical and robust is very close indeed.
  
• We have to nominate OUR candidates to stand for election. Please come and participate in the democratic process in the NUT. Lets have new leadership for our Union
  
  

Conference is the "Supreme Authority" of the Union. It is here that policy is laid down and our strategy planned e.g. salaries policy for next year.

Motions for Conference must come from local associations or the Executive. Waltham Forest has Association has been a major influence in the Union over the last few years.

Come and make sure we continue to have our say!
