Section A:
National with National Executive Report
NUT News No 6: Teachers United on
Workload. Reporting on the common motion at the three main Conferences
calling for an improved contract and more support staff.
NUT News No 7: Shady Deal:
post-threshold sham and Advice to Headteachers about post-threshold (upper
spine) progression. The NAHT and SHA have dropped their threat of boycotting PM
and accepted new criteria for the allocation of post-threshold progression. Any
such criteria would go against the recommendations of the STRB and should be
challenged.
Joint NUT and NASUWT advice for headteacher members on Upper Pay
Spine Progression + Letter from NUT to all headteachers advising them
to:
- carry out a review of the performance of post threshold
teachers
- use only the criteria published in the School Teachers'
Pay and Conditions Document, adding no new criteria or standards
- evaluate whether teachers have maintained their
threshold standards
- put budgetary considerations to one side while
evaluating whether the criteria are met
- recommend to the governors movement to point 2 of the
Upper Pay Spine in respect of all teachers who meet the criteria; and
- where the governing body, for whatever reason, does not
implement the recommendation, the decision and the reasons must be given to the
teacher. The headteachers and the teachers affected should seek guidance and
support from their professional associations.

CONFERENCE REPORT: From
Andrew Guite (Division President)
And items of correspondence from HQ
Re.
earlier circular 02/020: Laptops for teachers: NUT briefing says:
"All serving teachers in maintained and non-maintained special schools in
England will be eligible for the Laptop for Teachers scheme, provided that they
have not received a computer in the last three years under a previous Computers
for Teachers scheme and any other Government-funded programme. LEAs have been
asked to give priority to headteachers who have not been allocated a laptop
already. The DfES guidance states: "we would expect teachers who can
argue the case for their own personal computer to have signed up for the NOF
ICT training as this would give them an effective background in using their
laptop to its full advantage". (Hint?!). Unlike previous schemes,
teachers will not make personal applications to the DfES. LEAs will purchase
the laptops on behalf of schools and schools will allocate them to teachers for
their individual use. Ownership will remain with the school. Teachers will not
be able to take their laptop with them if they change schools."
02/030/COS -
PARENTAL LEAVE AND MATERNITY LEAVE
Advice and information. Full briefing posted on
Suffolk website.
From 10 January 2002, statutory entitlements to
parental leave under the Maternity and Parental Leave Regulations 1999 were
extended to all parents with children under five. Previously, parental leave
entitlement was available only to parents whose children were born after 15
December 1999. Parental leave entitlements for parents of disabled children
have been increased from 13 to 18 weeks. This means that many members who
previously did not qualify for the statutory parental leave entitlements will
now be able to request parental leave.
|
Maternity and Parental Leave : Further Changes
from April 2003 include:
- extension of the period of unpaid maternity leave in
order to allow a maximum of 12 months maternity leave;
- extension of the period for which statutory maternity
payments are made from the present 18 weeks to 26 weeks;
- increase in the flat rate Statutory Maternity Pay and
Maternity Allowance payments from the present £60.20 per week to £75
per week from April 2002 and £100 from April 2003;
- introduction of the right to two weeks paid
paternity leave for working fathers paid at the same flat rate; and
- introduction of statutory rights to paid adoption
leave, which will provide entitlements equal to the above maternity and
paternity entitlements to adoptive parents who will be able to choose which of
them takes either entitlement.

ASSOCIATION PROPOSALS FOR A SIX-TERM YEAR
The NUT continues to oppose the LGA
proposals for the reasons set out below.
| · The proposals would not reduce the current
problems of workload, stress and teacher shortage, a fact confirmed by the
report commissioned from PricewaterhouseCoopers, by the Government on teacher
workload. |
| · They might lead to considerable disruption in the
organisation of examination timetables. The curriculum and teaching
arrangements might need reorganisation. |
| · There is no evidence that a six term year would
have positive benefits for educational outcomes. |
| · The two-week autumn break would fall between two
terms of nine and eight weeks, respectively, which are in total considerably
longer than the current autumn term, thereby negating the benefits of the
longer break. |
| · The proposals would be unlikely to reduce
pressure upon main holiday periods. · Reorganisation might also lead to
revival of LGA proposals for changes in teachers' conditions of service floated
in 1999 including, inter alia, lengthening of the working year. |

GTP places. The process of allocation is similar to that used currently by
those wishing to become accredited providers of initial teacher training (ITT).
|
| Agencies with experience of ITT will be able to bid for
designation and an allocation of GTP places. The TTA is particularly keen to
encourage the development of partnerships to deliver GTP, such as schools,
accredited providers, LEAs and subject specialist groups. |

| Advice to members is in preparation and will be

of NUT members who are post-threshold teachers and identify their potential
needs for advice, guidance of further representation and support. The Union has
protested to the Secretary of State at the reaching of an agreement that
materially affects the conditions, pay, pensions and careers of teachers
without the involvement of the TUC affiliated unions. The NASUWT has written in
similar terms. At the request of the NUT and the NASUWT, the General Secretary
of the TUC, John Monks, has written expressing the strong anger and dismay of
the TUC at the agreement. |

MEETING OF DIVISION SECRETARIES - WEDNESDAY, 15 MAY 2002, Hamilaton
House. This is the same day as the next full JNC meeting so Secretary,
Assistant Secretary and Graham White are all committeed. EC to resolve.
Section B: Regional: John Dixon to Report
- Next Regional Exec/Div Secs' meeting changed to Wed 19th
June. Next ERC is Saturday 11th May.
Section C: Division /
County:Division Secretary, Martin Goold, to report, including
items from the preceding Executive Committee meeting.
6-term
year in Suffolk: An LEA Officer took great offence at the Division's
website headline "Suffolk LEA's proposals for a 6-term year" and
responded vigorously to an enquiry from an Ipswich headteacher. Secretary was
berated for taking the Learning for Life Panel's decision "to support the
implementation of the proposals" as indicating support by the LEA for the
proposed dates as published. Secretary has amended the website so as to leave
no ambiguity.
Staff
Absence Policies: Schools have been left to their own devices. The LEA has
never produced a model policy for schools, although there was a draft prepared
a couple of years ago. Secretary is suggesting to the LEA that it would be
helpful to have a model policy which would encourage consistency of practice
across the LEA's schools. One contentious point in some school policies is the
"requirement" to set cover work when off ill! The only guidance
available from SCC is in the Personnel Management Manual, dated 1996 and
lacking in essentials.
Negotiations with the LEA: Advisory Service, 6th March.
| 1) |
Advisory Teachers, pay: LEA said that they could
not extend their offer of back pay to September 2000 or January 2001. The
teachers' panel therefore believed that we have pushed them as far as we can.
DT said that the latest offer of AST 8-12 is better than we would have been
offered if it had been concluded around September 2000, and we think that this
is probably so. They did make some vague threat of having to slim the service
down (i.e. redundancies) if they had to pay out more. The Secretary contacted
all members involved, requesting a response on the offer of AST 8-12, with
arrears from April 2001 and an increment payable w.e.f. September 2001. If
ratified before the end of term, both the new rates, the arrears will be paid
in April, and an explanatory letter sent to you to explain how the new rate of
pay is calculated. |
| 2) |
Advisory Headteachers, pay: LEA agreed to
consider making the range L9 to L15 instead of L7 to L13. They have undertaken
to respond by the end of term. This would only affect the maximum of the scale
and Secretary has consulted on acceptance the assimilation made to L8 or L9 in
September 2000 with an increment (and some back-pay therefore) payable from
September 2001. |
| 3) |
Performance Management/Appraisal: The LEA has
confirmed that neither ATs or AHTs will be subject to the teachers'. leadership
or AST performance management for teachers. Both will be covered by the LEA
officers' "GOLD" Performance and Development Review scheme. This is
currently being revised and reprinted. The LEA has undertaken to provide copies
to the Unions and to all Advisory Staff. Incremental progression up the spine
is NOT dependent on a successful performance review. Progression will be
automatic provided there is a satisfactory level of performance. |
| 4) |
Holiday Entitlement: The LEA agreed with the NUT
that there was no need to change the previously agreed model paragraph ending
with "not significantly different from school holidays". The LEA
agreed to re-instate that phrase for all ATs and AHTs and to disregard the
proposed re-write. This will also write out the proposed reference to a 37-hr
week. We all agreed that there is no dispute about the kind of working time
that ATs put in to perform their duties. |
| 5) |
Conditions of Service: The LEA will prepare a
memorandum, to be included in AT and AHTs' contracts, which will itemise which
conditions of service apply. General conditions of service applicable to all
teachers in the Burgundy book will apply (sickness, maternity and notice).
Working time, performance management will be covered as above. This left the
area of threshold for those who wished, or who might wish, to return to school
teaching in the future. The LEA recognised that, as ATs would be not actually
be certified Advanced Skills Teachers, they could not be deemed to have crossed
the threshold. The LEA is therefore seeking advice on this. |
| 6) |
Anomalies and non-standard AT
contracts: It was agreed to deal with these on a casework basis but the LEA
accepted straight away your right of members to be accompanied in any
discussions/interviews about job evaluation, etc. |
- Advisory Teachers: follow-up: The LEA have since
reneged on their promise to include both arrears and the new pay rates in the
April pay cheques. They are now saying this cannot be done until May. Secretary
has accompanied 4 ATs in "non-standard" situations to interviews with
an officer from County Personnel who reports to Alan Aldred. These have been
restricted to establishing just what each job entails. However, as a result of
attending these interviews, some personal casework has arisen where
differentials prior to assimilation to the Advanced Skills Teacher scale have
not been maintained.
- The move to Soulbury: The LEA has decided to put
6 former advisory teacher posts onto Soulbury. These were amongst those for
whom we were negotiating, but the decision was taken without any further
discussion with the Union. All new Area Co-ordinator and Area SENCO posts will
be to Soulbury. When the Secretary protested that the Union had not been
consulted, AA responded by saying that the NUT was not recognised by the LEA
for negotiation on behalf of Soulbury Staff. Secretary is taking this up with
Regional Office and Headquarters. Secretary has asked the LEA to reconsider its
position on this. AA says the LEA recognises NAIEAC for advisers and AEP for
Psychologists. Our point is that they are now appointing teachers to
co-ordinator and consultancy posts, on Soulbury, with absolutely no
representation recognised! An interesting footnote: the LEA did not recognise
NAIEAC in the discussions about Advisory Teachers being put onto Soulbury. The
words "cake" and "eating it" come to mind. One snag for
teachers having to be paid on Soulbury is that pension arrangements have to be
transferred out of the TP, and those who pay AVCs to the teachers' scheme
cannot continue to do so.
Negotiations with LEA: SEN allowance for teachers in PRUs,
March 6th. LEA has rejected the NUT claim for all teachers in PRUs to be paid
the first SEN allowance. JCa said that circular 10/94 (which referred to EBD as
a SEN) had been superseded. They were unimpressed by the fact that all
neighbouring authorities paid this allowance. They were particularly complacent
about staffing of existing PRUs. A subsequent survey by the LEA showed that
recruitment to PRUs was no different from the recruitment situation generally.
The LEA did agree to review the recruitment / retention situation and to
consider whether some teachers in PRUs should get the special allowance.
They have agreed to report-back in June.
Negotiations with LEA, Cover Flexibilities. March 7th.
Secretary had to dissuade the LEA from attempting to breach the agreement by
encouraging heads to ignore the provision re. dividing a class amongst others.
The original SCC draft suggested that there could be local variations. The
final version is clearly in keeping with the national agreement. AA also has
some problems understanding how part timers can also have "banked"
time. AA has also ignored a suggestion that "bankable cover" should
be indicated clearly on cover lists/notices at the time of the request to
cover, to enable monitoring of fair operation. We still (22/4/2/) await the
final version of the SCC guidelines which will be published on the website when
finalised.
Negotiations with LEA: Ex Gratia Payments March 7th. A draft
policy document has been received which reverses the unofficial policy of
telling schools not to pay ex gratia payments for loss or damage and includes
reference to the Burgundy Book. It has taken a year to get this far since the
Secretary raised the lack of proper advice to schools. We still await the final
policy and, of course, its distribution to schools. The final version will be
published on our website.
- Negotiations with County Music Service: Talks
have taken place with Philip Shaw on a range of issues raised by the meeting of
members before Easter. Secretary to report back via Janet Rowe, CMS Rep. We
have also appointed a Rep for the Western Area PAC and have approached a member
to take this on in the north, to improve Union communications with our
peripatetic members.
- Union Advice from HQ on parental leave has been published on the
Suffolk website. At present, the entitlement is to leave of absence without
pay, and in most cases reasonable operation of the LEA's "special
leave" policy would be advantages. Next April, however, new regulations
will enable teachers (and all workers) to claim parental leave with pay.
- Section 188 Up-date: (i) Proceeding to selection
for the new Pipers' Vale situation (Raeburn/Orwell Jnr). Roger Mackay and Div
Sec. have been seeking to secure no unacceptable departure from the established
Section 188 procedure, even though the merger had been anticipated by several
temporary appointments. (ii) Gt Finborough: resolved by voluntary means. (iii)
Stratford St Mary resolved by voluntary means. (iv) St Felix, still under
consideration but there are several volunteers.
NUT
Facilities time: The Division has 200 days for this current financial year.
Secretary has asked AA to repeat the same allocations as last year. This
includes 10 days to Leiston Middle School for the time being.
- JNC Convenor, facilities: Secretary also asked AA
to consider a separate allowance for Penny Cook as JNC convenor, rather than
take her JNC duty time from the NUT allocation. The LEA has now agreed to
increase Penny's allowance as JNC convenor to 8 days per year.
- A copy of the rules and the Annual Report
as passed at the AGM 2002 has been sent to HQ. Grant Forms also submitted
(although a little late). The form provided did not mention "Unity
Officer".
Forward
Planning: School Representatives' Training. Ipswich Association have
pencilled in Friday 14th June for a Southern Area Session.
- Note that moderation of the SEN Audit is
beginning shortly. This is where the greatest workload is likely to
impact.
- Casework: Secretary is supporting memebrs in two
enquiries in the Northern Area.
- Card from Maggie Freeman thanking the Division
"for the unexpected and wonderful presentation made to me at the AGM. They
have all been much admired and will be treasured by me in the
future".
Unity Agenda: Local Action: Secretary has written to NASUWT
and ATL County Secretaries suggesting joint area meetings this term in the
county. NASUWT has responded but not sure. No response from ATL. Re. Unity
Officer, Secretary is still seeking advice on the need to appoint a Unity
Officer for the Division. There appears to be no rule or regulation from HQ
requiring this, although Associations have had to make such an appointment, for
grant purposes.
REPORT FROM THE TEACHER
REPRESENTATIVES: received from Andrew
Guite:
SUFFOLK COUNTY COUNCIL Learning For Life Theme
Panel Wednesday 20th March 2002
14-19 Education: This was an opportunity for the
Panel to consider the implications for the County Council of the proposals set
out in the Green Paper 14-19: extending opportunities, raising standards. David
Peachey introduced this item giving an overview. He said that there was a need
to start to identify the issues that Suffolk has to deal with in terms of 14-19
education. These were
· School Organisation - best use of resources
· School Improvement - the EDP, the targets and action plan; support and
advice services to schools
· Continuity and Progression - especially for pupils with SEN (this he
considered was a more complex and underdeveloped area)
· Admissions and Access - making sure that students were in the right
place at the right time
· Partnership - engagement with other agencies
· Role of County Councillors as representatives - to ensure what is built
up meets the needs of the young people who are their constituents. |
| This was followed by an excellent presentation on
Curriculum Development for 14-19 year olds by Liz Francis (County
Advisor for 14-19 Education). She outlined the main proposals in the Green
Paper and many of the implications for the education service. Mike Bax
(Executive Director of the Suffolk Learning & Skills Council then gave a
presentation about the role of the LSC. Marilyn Watsham (Assistant Principal
Further & Adult Education Suffolk College) who put forward the college
perspective followed him. Her presentation included some interesting
information about vocational courses as well as the academic curriculum.
Finally Hazel Mackintosh for Suffolk Connexions gave a presentation about the
role of the Connexions Service. This was followed by Members questions to the
presenters. The Chair promised that the Panel would give further consideration
to this matter at a future meeting (in fact the next meeting on Tuesday 7th
May). |
| OFSTED Inspection of the County Council - Post
Inspection Action Plan: Panel members then made comments on the draft
action plans that had been produced in response to the seven recommendations
made by the OFSTED inspection team and approved the arrangements for monitoring
and evaluating the plan |
| . The Pattern of the School Year: Consultation
Arrangements: At the last meeting of the Theme Panel members had asked for
the opportunity to consider the consultation strategy to be used in seeking
local views on the proposed move to a six-term year. David Thornton outlined
the arrangements that were set out in a paper presented to members. The
consultation was carefully defined, it sought to determine a distinctive
Suffolk view of the proposal. Amongst those to be consulted would be School
staff associations (i.e. teacher and other staff unions); headteacher
management forums; school governors, teachers and all other school staff. An
individual letter would go to all staff with key messages, with an opportunity
to respond with concerns (short questionnaire with open-ended questions). He
stressed that it was not a referendum. Other LEAs are working to the same time
scale of a 30th June deadline that had been set by the LGA. The County
Council's Executive Committee would make the final decision on what would be
Suffolk's response to the proposed move to a six-term year. |
| The meeting of the Learning for Life Theme Panel on
Wednesday 10th July is likely to include items on Education other than at
school, including for vulnerable children [including sick and excluded
children, children educated by their parents and learning for vulnerable
children and young people]; Provision for children with autism; and Provision
for children with Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties. If you would like any
further information on any of the issues raised in this meeting, please do not
hesitate to contact any of us. |

reports
Courses and Conferences: Derek Merril to report on "Respect is not
enough".
- Student Recruitment: Christine Lloyd to report.
Written report available at the meeting. Christine is concerned that
the funding allocated to schools for receiving SCITT students no longer pays
for a temporary point for experienced teachers to act as mentors. Many schools
prefer to use the funding (about £500 per term) to pay for supply rather
than allocate temporary points..
