Written Statement: Teachers’ Pay Award 2025/26 (17 July 2025) | GOV.WALES Lynne Neagle MS, Cabinet Secretary for Education

Going out to all NASUWT representatives in schools. It was a great team effort putting these together. Massive round of applause to those pupils with the art skills who contributed to the designs around it 😌👏🏼👏🏼

David Beynon won the Angela Butler award this year at NASUWT CYMRU conference in Cardiff. An inspiring activist who has looked after all his colleagues in Cwmtawe.

What a brilliant weekend putting (actually throwing 🤣🤣) Mark Cleverly into the President Chair. It’s been an unprecedented and unpredictable year as President. Such a high honour to have represented members in Neath Port Talbot and all members across Wales at various events, national campaigns and meetings.
One other fablas bit of news David Beynon from Neath Port Talbot won the Angela Butler award recognising his hard work as a new rep in school and how he has promoted everything the union stands for! Llongyfarchiadau David!

Asbestos Removal Campaign Currently, the regulations allow for indefinite management in situ, leading to staff and pupils being exposed to asbestos and teacher deaths due to asbestos exposure continue to rise.
