Marching for fair funding for maintained nursery schools

UNISON members joined a successful rally and picket outside Downing Street today to demand a fair, long term funding settlement for nursery schools.
Since 2016, nursery schools have had to rely on interim funding that only lasts one year, despite the government promising a long term funding solution. This has resulted in the schools being unable to budget or make planning decisions. As a result, some have been threatened with closure.
