Labour’s plans will improve education for all, says UNISON

Commenting on Labour’s plans to improve education standards for all children published today (Thursday), UNISON general secretary Dave Prentis said:

“Schools are paying a high price for government cuts, which have starved them of funding for years.

“Slashed staffing numbers, rising class sizes and dilapidated buildings are the legacy of a public-school elite with little interest in providing quality education for every child and young person.

“Labour has unveiled a vision of a progressive education system. Investing in staff, pupils and buildings is the only way to reverse the damage inflicted by a callous, self-serving government.”

Notes to editors:
– UNISON is the UK’s largest union, with more than 1.3 million members providing public services – in education, local government, the NHS, police service and energy. They are employed in both the public and private sectors.
