The NUT is campaigning against Academy schools because:

• Academies have a damaging impact on children, teachers and the whole community.
• Academies do not raise educational standards.

Further information on why the NUT is campaigning against Academies is set out in “What is the NUT’s view on Academy schools?” This section of the NUT’s website provides advice on how you can help to campaign against Academies planned in your local area.

Listed below are the NUT’s key documents on Academies.
