I welcome all invitations to visit NQT events, schools, Associations, Divisions, Retired Teachers, Local Training, Officers’ organisational weekends etc. – or anything else you think appropriate. Just check the diary first - (some things can be moved!) and then email Steve Bartholomew at Hamilton House with some possible dates s.bartholomew@nut.org.uk & copy to b.greenshields@executive.nut.org.uk
I am
particularly concerned to promote the Union’s “organising culture”, to discuss
the Education Charter, and to hear
views and priorities from members, activists, School Reps & Officers. P
