We hope you’ve had an opportunity to rest over the summer and you are ready for the new school year.
Included below are some brief updates or links to information that you might find interesting or useful:
NJC Pay 2024 -2025
GMB members voted to accept the employer’s pay offer and the employer has been notified of this. We are just waiting for the results of the ballots from the other recognised unions and will then be able to advise further.

School support staff are one of the most abused and assaulted groups of workers. Included with your membership is access to GMB’s law firm, Unionline and part of its service is assistance with Personal Injury Claims. More information can be found on this by clicking here Schools_PI_FAQ.pdf
