The findings of a YouGov poll involving almost 800 teachers have been released by the National Union of Teachers (NUT) as part of its on-going campaign against the cuts to school funding.
Meanwhile, a separate YouGov poll, also commissioned by the NUT, found that 43 per cent of parents say that education and school funding will be a key issue when they decide who to vote for in today’s General Election (Thursday, June 8).
In fact, only the health system and Brexit were considered more important election issues, according to the results of the poll.
Involving more than 1,000 parents with school-aged children, the study found that around 80 per cent of the parents have been approached by their school with requests for donations or additional funding for school equipment.
