A message to teachers from NUT General Secretary, Christine Blower

The NUT/NAHT’s campaign to end SATs and introduce meaningful, child-centred assessment. As you’ll know, the NUT and NAHT’s campaign to end SATs continues. Elsewhere on this website, under assessment reform, you’ll find materials to help you make the argument to teachers and parents about why these tests have to go.

 

We are campaigning nationally against SATs because they are bad for children, bad for teachers, bad for education and bad for communities. We are keen for there to be a public debate, involving all political parties, about how we rid primary schools of this high stakes testing regime that distorts the curriculum and damages our children’s education.
