❄️ Last year, 45% of teachers said they work in severe to moderate cold conditions in the winter. Because of cuts, schools can’t afford to fix or replace broken boilers. It means that students are learning in unmanageable temperatures, with coats and gloves on.

Education is running on empty. Today's Budget has done nothing to improve this. With no plans to stop school cuts, roofs will continue to leak, teachers will keep paying for their own supplies, and heads will keep having to make impossible decisions in their budgets.

15 years. 10 Chancellors. Since 2010, we have seen the financial health of our schools reach a critical level. 📉 Education spending as a share of GDP is at its lowest in 25 years. The Government must provide funding that reflects the real costs schools face today.
