Collectively, NASUWT members have taken hundreds of days of industrial action to secure their rights and entitlements to pay and working conditions that reflect their status as highly skilled professionals.

The NASUWT will, with the support of members, take industrial action where members’ statutory entitlements are being undermined and our record of success is second to none, securing improvements and positive changes in members’ working lives.

Members have taken successful industrial action:

• to defend their right to refuse to teach violent and disruptive pupils;
• over excessive workload;
• forced academisation;
• pension rights;
• the denial of statutory entitlements on pay;
• workplace bullying and adverse management practices.

Members with concerns about the way in which they are being managed, about pupil behaviour or about any attempts to deny them their statutory rights on pay and working conditions in their school should contact the NASUWT for further advice and support.
