Since 2014 the Government has been consulting on and working to remove unnecessary workload for teachers. The 2016 survey published on 24th February 2017 has told them that the 3 biggest areas of concern are marking, planning and data management. This has led to the development of 3 associated working groups and the publication of an action plan with a full update of work and future commitments to help reduce teacher workload .
Additional resources developed with Ofsted and unions are a poster and pamphlet that can be downloaded from the site or links below and shared with colleagues, both teachers and HLTAs.
