Together We Can Win
We have already won concessions on pensions
Teachers over 50 are protected
A pension which would have been 10,000 will
now be 10,800 (but should have been 15,000)
Two days strike action has won 800 a year!
We can win more if we are united NUT & NASUWT together are 85% of teachers
