Save our Schools protest today at Parliament‏

UNISON is backing today’s lobby of Parliament by education unions protesting at the Con Dem Government’s destructive education policies. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-10663199
UNISON national officer Christine Lewis, said: "The government is behaving recklessly by halting the Building Schools for the Future programme without consulting schools or local authorities. Some projects will see their funding completely cut off, which will cause chaos in vulnerable communities that are struggling to pull themselves out of recession."
