European Trade Union Committee for Education

The NUT, one of the ETUCE member organisations in the United Kingdom, uses the London Pride March to show LGBT+ people in London and across the world that the Union believes in a diverse teaching workforce and welcomes LGBT+ teachers into its membership.  The Union also believes that schools should be safe and welcoming spaces for all children, young people and their families. 

For some members, coming onto the NUT Pride bus was the first step that they had taken towards becoming more active within the Union and with follow up support from our Senior Organiser for LGBT+ members it has been proven that many  will continue their development as Union activists on LGBT+ issues and in wider campaigning.
