  45. The Division's response to the LEA's Proposals for SEN funding by audit were forwarded to the LEA on 19th July. A copy was posted on the website and schools FAXed to inform them where to find our response. Main recommendation was to delay implementation.
  46. SEN Audit: LEA has agreed to delay as requested by the Union. New timetable:
    Nov-Jan 2001 Training / Familiarisation
    Feb - March 2002 Audit
    March - April 2002 Monitoring / Moderation

  47. Our response to the EOTAS consultation document was circulated to all PRUs and other unattached resources. It included NUT Conference policy on the requirements for successful integration of EBD pupils.
  48. Threshold in Suffolk: in none of the cases of review (appeal) known to the Division had CEA reported the outcome before the summer holidays. CEA closed down for the summer and informed those waiting for a response that the 70 days waiting period does not include school holidays. The 40 working days teachers were allowed to lodge appeals did include school holidays! The first Suffolk review outcome came on 11th September, and was successful. Unfortunately, however, the member concerned had resigned in protest at the Headteacher's lack of confidence and went elsewhere. Secretary is preparing a report on what went wrong with threshold processes in Suffolk. Secretary in correspondence with CEA on some of the continuing unsatisfactory elements.
  49. Inspection of Suffolk LEA: The LEA promised NUT (and other Teacher Organisation) involvement in the "focus group" meetings arranged to meet with the Inspectors on 17th September. Without notice, the LEA changed their plans and only invited Penny Cook as JNC convenor, to represent all the teacher organisations. They did not let Penny know that she would have to consult with all the County Secretaries, and they did not warn the County Secretaries either. Penny attended the briefing session and found herself alone, with no time left to consult. The Secretary contacted the LEA to ask for confirmation of the arrangements and heard nothing back, so HQ contacted the lead Inspector to object and point out a poor approach to personnel matters by the LEA. This led to a second focus group meeting to be called next week, just with the Teacher Organisations. HQ has sent a poster and information to Suffolk School Reps about the inspection.
  50. Holywells: A Michael Kee from Lincolnshire was appointed to take over as acting headteacher from September, with Mike Moran continuing to work there for two days a week as "associate headteacher". However, the offer to Mr Kee was withdrawn when there was press interest re. his running of Robert Manning Technology College, Bourne, Lincs and another school in Portsmouth. Karen Grimes has been appointed acting headteacher for the year. Secretary met with KG and MM on 12/9/1 to discuss cooperation and support for Holywells and members, with NASUWT.
  51. Advisory Teachers: Secretary met with AA on 20th July. LEA had made no response to our rejection of Soulbury Scales 6-10 or to our counterproposal for assimilation, as in schools, to teachers' leadership spine. (Advisory Teachers have been temporarily assimilated to L2). There being no agreement, we asked LEA to pay an increment in September (i.e. to L3) but AA is refusing this. The only increment he would allow is to point 7 on the Soulbury scale. Secretary circulated members to elicit support fordeclaring a dispute by lodging a collective grievance, on the matter of this month's increment. Some non-NUT advisory members called a meeting with AA and RB on 7th Sept because they had not heard back from their Union Reps. AA put forward the LEA's proposal, but omitted to say that it had been rejected by the NUT and failed to put any alternatives. Secretary attended as an observer and spoke to the advisory teachers after the meeting. A large number of NUT members replied supporting the lodging of a grievance, which was done on 13th September. With overwhelming support from NUT members, Secretary lodged the grievance on 14th September, asking for an interview with an appropriate officer within the fortnight laid down in procedures.
  52. New draft procedures for Grievance, Discipline and Capability. Secretary responded in August to these three draft documents. Most changes were unspectacular, but the Grievance re-write was completely unacceptable. It failed to provide any procedure for grievances against the headteacher, and has left out collective grievances (sinister or what?)! Secretary has suggested amendments, based on the existing grievance procedure. JNC has adopted a similar approach. Only the NUT has responded.
  53. Child Protection/Allegation Co-ordinator Post: Suffolk and Norfolk LEAs appointed Diana Madden who is currently employed in Suffolk as an Advisory Teacher for Social Services with responsibility for the educational attainment of children in public care. She is a qualified teacher and a trained social worker and will start on 1st November. She will meet JNC on 3rd October. Secretary has written to DM with information from the Campaign to Clear Marje Evans, 31st July 2001..
  54. Secretary will attend a consultation workshop with the Learning & Skills Council at CenterParcs on 12th October. This will seek views on the consultation draft of their Local Strategic Plan 2002-2005.
  55. Suffolk CC Executive Committee: There will be two "portfolio holders" for most Education issues. Ray Nowak's remit will cover all personnel issues as part of "Finance, physical and human resources", although he acknowledges that "Education staff come within separate agreements". Bryony Rudkin has responsibilities for "young people issues". Ray has indicated a willingness for us to meet them both. Secretary has asked for dates for Sept/Oct, with Penny attending.
  56. First SEN Allowance: Secretary has circulated all schools reps a memo alerting teachers of SEN to the wording re. award of the First SEN Allowance. Also circular to all PRUs re. implications for teachers of EBD in Units. Secretary has written to the LEA asking for a reconsideration of the position of SEN allowances for teachers in PRUs, as a result of the new wording.
  57. Ex gratia Payments: Secretary is in detailed correspondence with LEA and County Personnel re. a refusal of LEA to consider ex gratia payments for damages/losses in school. Secretary has pointed out "custom and practice" and the Burgundy Book policy on ex gratia payments, claiming that the LEA has unilaterally worsened teachers' conditions of service. Lodged with JNC.
  58. Secretary has accepted an invitation to attend the Suffolk Learning & Skills Council for Suffolk consultation workshop on the Local Strategic Plan, Friday 12th October, CenterParcs, Brandon.
  59. No further contact from LEA re. assault and injury. LEA is supposed to be sending us CALM/UNISAFE information but only a telephone message so far.

  66. Radio Suffolk: From Press association ILLITERACY ON THE INCREASE, STUDY SHOWS: Illiteracy among youngsters in 2001 is higher than before the First World War, despite the recent burst of effort to improve the nation's reading and writing skills, research showed today. Up to 15% of young people aged 15 to 21 are functionally illiterate, according to a study by the University of Ulster. By contrast, a report by school inspectors in 1912 said just 2% were unable to read or write, the researchers said. The study, commissioned from Professor Loreto Todd, also showed that the youth of today is over-confident in its spelling abilities. While seven out of 10 believed they were pretty good at getting words right, when asked to spot 14 mistakes in a piece of text, none of the 15 to 21-year-olds surveyed for the research were able to identify them all. Girls did better than boys - as they have been doing in English exams for a few years - but were still unable to highlight more than two-thirds of the errors correctly. Boys only managed to spot 54% of the mistakes ..... But despite the general awareness of the importance of literacy among UK youth, the research suggested they were actually getting worse, not better. When presented with the same word spelt slightly differently three times, 90% of 41 to 50-year-olds got the right answer, compared with just 65% of 15 to 30-year-olds. ... A spokeswoman for the Department for Education and Skills said: "High levels of literacy are crucial to the economic and social well being of this nation - that's why we have focused on improving reading and writing standards in our schools. "Last year 99% of all 15-year-olds in schools who took GCSE English passed it and have the equivalent of functional literacy or above. ...Eileen Allpress contacted to respond for Radio Suffolk.
  67. Secretary has written (7/9/1) to LEA asking for a response to his letter of May 3rd concerning transfer of facilities budget to enable a change of post.
  68. *** Conference for Eastern Region: 'Continuing Professional Development`. London, Thursday 20th Sept 2001. Delegates are drawn from an extensive range of schools across the region, local LEAs and Higher Education Institutes, education networks and representatives from organisations including unions, professional associates, the GTC and the TTA. Andrew Guite has been invited. EC to consider financial support (Secretary has agreed to facilities cover in advance, due to date of event).
  69. Draft Rules and Standing Orders 2002. The Secretary has prepared a draft to up-date rules and standing orders as requested by the Membership Meeting, and to take account of the proposed changes to honoraria, etc. These rules will be available at this meeting (September) for discussion at the November 1st Council Meeting. The first draft has been circulated in advance to Presidents, ex-Presidents, Vice-President, Treasurer, Regional Office.
  70. Facilities: The Union had used 159.5 days of time off (allocated) by August 15th.
  71. Better Union Communications: Secretary is attempting to use e-mail for more internal communications, firstly with Division Council members and then to replace FAX merges with e-mail bulk messaging.
  72. Consultation with Treasurer re. King Edward VI Conference Centre as a venue.
  73. Teacher Representatives: Andrew Guite reports:
    Learning For Life Theme Panel Tuesday 11 September 2001
    Welcome back, we hope you all had a good holiday. Following the County Council elections there were changes in the structure of the Council. There is an executive made up of Labour and Liberal councillors who now take decisions with no opposition present or any other representative (previously 1 teacher rep. and 2 diocesan reps.). There is now a new Learning for Life Theme Panel which includes 2 teacher reps (as before) and 2 teacher reps are invited to attend the Scrutiny Committee, which oversees the work of the Council.
    The LFL Theme Panel met on the 11.9.01 with a slim agenda. One paper was an update on decisions made by other local bodies which impact on learning like the School Organisation Committee and Executive Committee Decisions.
    The second was titled Teacher Recruitment in Suffolk. This paper was spoken to by John Sculpher (Northern Area Education Manager). Many interesting questions were put to him, and it gave us, the TR`s, a chance to include areas like personnel, retention, exit questionnaires, childcare provision, morale, incentives, housing and the Teacher Well-Being Programme. It was readily accepted it was also about retention, and we were informed that the government had given schools extra money for recruitment and retention in April. Whilst it was a national problem, most of the discussion centred on Suffolk. Mr. Sculpher assured us there would be no complacency, there had been serious problems and that we had, ‘scraped through.’ The moral issue of teachers from abroad was brought up. It was thought that the 40 teachers had signed short contracts, they would be supported, and they would, ‘take back a much broader experience.’ A new development, (important if many supply workers are on part time contracts) is that the LEA is exploring a partnership arrangement with a private agency so that a call to the agency would result in the most appropriate available teacher being sent to the requesting school.
    The final part of the meeting was a departure from normal practice with a brainstorming activity in four groups to identify priorities and ways of working for the next six months, with a reporting back at the end. It reminded me of school development plan discussions!
    Any queries please contact Alan Draper at Pakefield Middle School (01502 565986) or Andrew Guite at Gorseland Primary School (01473 623790)
  74. Health & Safety Adviser: John Osborne of Orwell High School has agreed to be the Divisional Adviser and his contact details have been forwarded to the LEA. Secretary has contacted Colin Exworth to express Division's thanks for all the work he did in his period of office. We are still awaiting the launch of the new incident report forms.
    Section D: Local Associations
  75. Div Sec has asked Ipswich Association to confirm the position of the Ipswich Association Secretariat for the coming term, so that communications can be sent to the right quarter.
  76. Recruitment reports.
  77. From Waveney District Trades Council: request for support/involvement in a public meeting on privatisation, Lowestoft Library November 9th. Secretary is responding.
  78. re. Lowestoft Association: Ray Russell has reported the death of Mr WB Roach, thought to be the last survivor of the NUT strike in Lowestoft 1922.

Part 2: Decision Making

A) Arising from National Matters

  1. "Flexibilities": Confirmation of decisions taken at Leiston Middle School (July 12th) which was inquorate: a) Motion, carried unanimously:
    ' This meeting rejects the Agreement on Cover as notified to members in NUT News 18. We believe that it will lead to a deterioration in conditions of service, particularly in those schools where members are already providing cover beyond that defined in the Pay and Conditions Order. There is no guarantee that the 'banking over' of any additional cover by members will be acted on within the defined period. Neither is there any evidence to support the contention that local education authorities will have to provide new Supply Teacher pools. We, therefore, urge the National Executive to insist on negotiations with the employers, which guarantee that no teacher will have to cover beyond the third day of any absence. In the failure of such negotiations, the 'Cover to Contract' action should be reinstated forthwith.'
    b) Children of Asylum Seekers: Request from Cambridgeshire NUT to consider the motion:
    This Division of the National Union of Teachers opposes the detention of children whose families are seeking asylum in the UK. We oppose the establishment of separate educational provision for children in detention centres such as Yarlswood and Harmondsworth. We believe that all children living in the UK, including those held in detention centres, should be entitled to full-time education in mainstream schools.
    We urge the National Executive of the NUT to campaign against the provision of schooling in reception or detention centres as an alternative to education in local schools by: informing members of the situation,
    - through circulars and in the next issue of ‘The Teacher’ magazine;
    - asking members of the NUT not to apply for teaching jobs in detention centres, where the educational provision is an alternative to mainstream schooling;
    - calling for an urgent meeting with representatives of the Home Office and Department for Education and Skills to put forward our concerns.
    c) Palestine Motion from Westminster NUT et al, to be proposed by the Secretary:
    The Suffolk Division Council of the National Union of Teachers condemns:-
    · the use by the Government of Israel of Fl6 fighters, helicopter gunships and heavy artillery against the Palestinian people;
    · the deaths of over 600 Palestinians killed since September 2000 and the wounding of over 14,000;
    · the destruction of houses, the closing of roads and the blockading of all normal trade from the Occupied Territories of Gaza and the West Bank
    · the continuing illegal occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem and
    · the continuing expansion of settlements
    .
    The Suffolk Division expresses its support for: -
    · The right to self-determination of the Palestinian people.
    · The right of return for the Palestinian refugees under Article 13 (2) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
    ·The immediate and unconditional withdrawal of Israeli troops from all the territories occupied in 1967 as expressed in United Nations Resolutions 242 and 338.
    · The boycott of Israeli products and leisure tourism.

    We therefore resolve to:
    · investigate building links with Palestinian teacher organisations
    · send this motion to our National Executive, appropriate regional bodies and trades councils
    · support this motion for discussion at the Annual Conference of the union.
  2. Regional Matters: TUC Women’s Conference 13-15 March. Nomination of delegate to represent Easter Region of NUT.

    3) Headquarters’ help should be enlisted re. the mechanisms involved and for advice on claiming tax refunds for use of home as office, etc.
    4) The level of honoraria should not be raised to compensate for the deductions (as they should have been declared anyway)
    5) Other methods of compensating those who do work for the Union to deal with incidental expenses should be kept under consideration.
    6) The Division should pay an honorarium (from AGM 2002) to the Equal Opportunities Officer, the Student Recruitment Officer and the Health & Safety Adviser for their services to the Division.
    7) The posts in (6) should in future be elected at the AGM (with the Executive Committee empowered to make appointments to any vacancy).

    9) For all those in receipt of an honorarium, the precise amount for any one year shall be agreed at each AGM as before.
    10) The Presidential allowance shall cease to be considered an honorarium and become an item of expenses for entertainment of Suffolk delegates at annual conference, up to £25 and covered by receipts (to start at Conference 2002)
    11) Travel Expenses: the mileage allowance for all travel should be raised to 31.6p per mile (the teachers’ rate payable by the LEA) from 01/01/02

    14) The Membership Meeting does not recommend an increase in common local association fee for 2002 (i.e. the association fee should remain at £11.00 per full member, £5.50 for all others.
    15) The Rules of the Division will be updated. The Secretary will prepare draft changes for the September Division Council Meeting.
  5. Other financial decisions: Motion from Ipswich Association:
    "Suffolk Division Council notes with concern that privatisation of education now forms a major part of this government's domestic policy in its current term of office. In view of the Union's policy against privatisation Suffolk Division gives support to the demonstration organised to coincide with the Labour Party conference in Brighton on 30th September and therefore agrees to donate £50 to help defray expenses for the Ipswich TUC coach taking supporters to this event."
    Secretary to propose an amendment to the final sentence, after "therefore agrees": delete rest of final sentence and substitute: "to support up to 4 NUT members attending by donating £10 per member as a contribution to transport costs.
