  • Open Letter to Address Systemic Racism in Further Education
    BLACK FURTHER EDUCATION LEADERSHIP GROUP 5th August 2020 Open letter to address systemic racism in further education Open letter to: Rt. Hon. Boris Johnson, Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Gavin Williamson MP, Secretary of State for Education, funders of further education colleges; regulatory bodies & further education membership bodies. We, the undersigned, are a group of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) senior leaders, and allies, who work or have an interest in the UK further education (FE) sector. The recent #BlackLivesMatter (#BLM) global protest following the brutal murder of George Floyd compels us all to revisit how we address the pervasive racism that continues to taint and damage our society. The openness, solidarity and resolve stirred by #BLM is unprecedented and starkly exposes the lack of progress made in race equality since ‘The Stephen Lawrence Enquiry’. Against a background of raised concerns about neglect in healthcare, impunity of policing, cruelty of immigration systems – and in education, the erasure of history, it is only right for us to assess how we are performing in FE. Only by doing so, can we collectively address the barriers that our students, staff and communities face. The personal, economic and social costs of racial inequality are just too great to ignore. At a time of elevated advocacy for FE, failure to recognise the insidious nature of racism undermines the sector’s ability to fully engage with all its constituent communities. The supporting data and our lived experiences present an uncomfortable truth, that too many BAME students and staff have for far too long encountered a hostile environment and a system that places a ‘knee on our neck’.

  • UCU London News, Dec 18
    NEWSLETTER AN INFORMATION BULLETIN FOR MEMBERS FROM THE LONDON REGIONAL OFFICE Winter 2018/19 Dear colleague, Welcome to our latest regional office newsletter at the end of a busy and successful year for UCU, with major campaigns over USS, and over pay and conditions in both further and higher education. The fight goes on as UCU is currently balloting for strike action in six FE colleges in the London region with a ballot of all higher education institutions expected in the new year over the 2018 pay claim. In this issue, we have an article on the current ballots and the recent successful strike action as part of the #FEfightsback campaign, as well as updates on the pay campaign in HE, USS and the Teachers’ Pension Scheme. We in the regional office continue to support our members and branches with their individual and collective issues but as always we remember that our members and activists are the lifeblood of the union. Thank you to those who have campaigned, picketed, and joined our lobbies and demonstrations over the last year: we ask you to speak to your colleagues who may not yet have joined and ask them to become members of UCU to support the work we all do across higher and further education. The union is only as strong as our members! We wish all of our members and activists a happy and peaceful Christmas and New Year and look forward to an active and successful 2019. Amanda, Barry and Una Regional officials FE FIGHTS BACK Croydon College UCU and Lambeth College UCU were among the magnificent six branches in England taking strike action for fair pay on 28 and 29 November.
