NUT National Union of Teachers c1870-1996 Name of Creator: National Union of Teachers (NUT) Extent: 50 boxes & 11 loose items Administrative/Biographical History: The National Union of Teachers (NUT) is a trade union for school teachers. It was founded in 1870 as the National Union of Elementary Teachers (NUET), and changed its name in 1888 to become the National Union of Teachers (NUT) which is how it is currently known. The NUT campaigned for improved teachers’ pay and conditions, and to improve state education. In 1915 NUT moved to its current address at Hamilton House, Mabledon Place, London, WC1. Throughout its history the NUT has been involved in various demonstrations and strikes concerning education and the teaching profession, particularly in the 1980s as a result of pay disputes. The NUT remained involved in campaigning and protests throughout the 1990s and 2000s for teachers’ salaries, the rights of minorities, and international work. The NUT remains a major body for the representation of school teachers in England and Wales, and continues to campaign for education and the teaching profession. In 1872 the NUT launched its weekly journal The Schoolmaster, which served as a platform for education debate. The journal's name was later changed ‘The Teacher’, which continues to be its current title. Custodial History: Deposited by Kevin Courtney (General Secretary of the NUT) 24 November, 2016.
