Get Active!

ATL members know that they can achieve change by collective action.

We are one of the strongest and fastest growing education unions in the UK and much of our success is due to our enthusiastic, dedicated and hard-working members.

There are many benefits to being involved in ATL - you'll be well informed about education issues and get to influence them. You'll build up a strong network of contacts and it could even open up career opportunities you hadn't considered. With the promise of first-class support from our professional staff and training courses you don't need to worry about being on your own.

There's a diverse and varied range of roles and tasks you could take on, and this only needs to take up as much time as you're willing to give.

For more information on what's available, browse these pages, speak to your rep, or email getactive@atl.org.uk. You can also listen to ATL member Ruth Hanson, who spoke to a group of NQTs recently about her involvement with ATL: Ruth Hanson and ATL.
