Labour is letting down Britain's children, says National Education Union leader
"Kebede stated, 'It should surprise no one that the Green party now commands the greatest support among NEU members. People are not volatile—they are responding to what they see, and to what they do not.'"
"'Sixty-five percent of NEU members who voted Labour in 2024 now tell us they will not do so again. That is not a statistic to be dismissed or explained away. It is a warning.'"
"'I want this government to listen. To understand where it has gone wrong. And to recognize what it must do if it is to honor the hopes of those who voted for change.'"
"'While much of the headline rhetoric was welcome, the policy detail just does not deliver.'"
Daniel Kebede, general secretary of the National Education Union, criticized the UK government's education record and Labour's failure to fulfill promises. He highlighted a shift in NEU members' support towards the Green party, with 65% of those who voted Labour in 2024 indicating they would not do so again. Kebede urged the Labour government to listen and understand its shortcomings. He acknowledged some positive rhetoric but emphasized that the policy details do not meet expectations, particularly regarding Ofsted and other educational reforms.
