(6) PRESIDENT’S RETIRING ADDRESS.- The Vice-President invited the President to address the meeting. The President’s speech was as follows: Welcome to the 170th AGM which falls between the forming of a new Scottish Government and the EU Referendum. I will make some remarks on the former and on the latter I predict that at the end of June we will still be in Europe - at least geographically. Economic situation I am happy to return to Dundee where I attended my first AGM in 2002 having become active in the Aberdeenshire Executive around the 2001 agreement. That agreement heralded a significant increase in education spending including 23% restorative pay rise over three years, a significant increase in teachers numbers to reduce maximum class contact to 22.5 hours and additional classroom assistants and other support staff to free up time for teaching and learning. O happy days! In 2010 our then General Secretary Ronnie Smith warned that “a decade of education, education, education was about to be followed by a decade of cuts, cuts, cuts”. Of course, Scottish teachers and pupils were not to blame for the financial crisis of 2008 but the political response of austerity has meant that we have paid the price. Our Equality Committee’s “Face Up To Child Poverty” publication contained advice to members on “poverty proofing” the school day and was very well received. However it is shameful that such advice is needed in this day and age. The impact of austerity driven cuts, which have deepened the levels of child poverty, have created even greater barriers to educational achievement for too many of our young people. Teachers have also paid the price in terms of real term pay cuts and significant detriment to our pensions – paying more, working longer and getting less. To rub salt in the wound, many members will have seen an actual net reduction in their April salary, despite a 1% pay increase, caused by National Insurance changes, for many an increased pension contribution to achieve the overall 9.6% contribution rate and for some promoted members the ending of the period of cash conservation. 4 It is perhaps worth recalling the promises made by the Tories in the 2010 election: austerity would clear the deficit and create conditions for growth and that “We’re all in this together”. Here we are in 2016 with welfare cuts meaning the poorest in society have paid the price, increasing levels of child poverty and increasing reliance on food banks. We have had the pain but for what gain? The deficit stands at £76b, national debt has increased by over 50% since the 2010 election and economic growth stands at a meagre 0.4%. Indeed, recently a strong warning that austerity policies can do more harm than good has been delivered by economists from the IMF. Belated agreement with the STUC “There is a better way!” campaign. One better way is to have a fair tax system at global and national level. The most surprising thing about the “Panama papers” was that anyone was surprised. Professor Gabriel Zuckman in “The Hidden Wealth of Nations” conservatively calculates that, as of 2014, at least $7.6 trillion or around 8% of the world’s financial wealth was “missing”. The Global Alliance for Tax Justice, which is supported by Education International, campaigns for: 1. An end to secrecy and more public accountability for companies. 2. International tax rules that are fair for all countries. 3. Progressive, transparent and sufficiently resourced tax. 4.

Context In June 2014, the Commission for Developing Scotland’s Young Workforce published its final report Education Working for All! In response to the report, Scottish Government and Local Government set out their Implementation Plans in Developing the Young Workforce – Scotland’s Youth Employment Strategy published in December 2014. The plans identified key themes and milestones over the seven year lifetime of the programme. In order to better prepare young people for the world of work, the report recommended that new standards for careers guidance and work experience be developed reflecting the involvement of employers and that all schools be supported by employers in long term partnerships. The following documents were published in September 2015: • The Career Education Standard 3-18 (CES): entitlements for all children and young people aged three to 18; • The Work Placement Standard (WPS): expectations for young people in the senior phase of learning; and • Guidance on School/Employer Partnerships: underpinning the delivery of the CES, the WPS and long term partnerships. The standards and the guidance were published with the understanding that Education Scotland would evaluate the impact the documents were having, in light of experience and use, by March 2017.
