Schools and colleges can’t afford any more empty promises or short-term fixes. They need £12.6bn more each year by 2022/23. Sign this open letter to hold the Prime Minister to account over this figure and end the school funding crisis.actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
Our banner made it to Marple Hall recently! Here are the staff showing their support for our campaign. Marple Hall has lost out on over £895,000 since 2010. #SchoolCuts #Marple

Members of our school community support @FairMarple raising awareness of the funding crisis in schools. Mellor has lost out on over £120,000 for per pupil funding since 2014. Imagine what a difference that could make to our children's education. #FundingFit4Schools
As the school funding crisis deepens, parents in wealthy areas are raising money to provide for their schools. This is leading to inequality in our state education system as parents in poorer areas can’t afford to fundraise. theguardian.com/education/20…

Our banner has been at Rose Hill school this week. Rose Hill has lost out on over *£344,000* since 2010. Imagine the difference that money would make to our children’s education!

Well done @jessphillips for highlighting this issue. It’s disgraceful that the current government choose not to fund our children’s education properly @FairMarple

Our children deserve 5 days of school a week. All over the country, schools are cutting their hours to save money and it’s not good enough! #GiveMe5 #SchoolCuts

No ifs no buts no education cuts @DamianHinds @educationgovuk #GiveMe5 #5Days4All
Ludworth school parents and kids took time out from a PTA fundraiser to show their support for our #fairfunding campaign. As schools continue to suffer from significantly reduced budgets PTA funds are essential to help make ends meet. #SchoolCuts #Marple

We’re taking our #SchoolCuts banner on a tour of #Marple schools. Today parents and pupils at St Mary’s RC primary came together to show their concern about the impact the cuts are having on our children’s education.
Hello Twitter! We’re a group of parents in Marple, Stockport. We’ve been trying to raise awareness of the impact of education cuts on our schools. We’ll use this account to share info and link up with other campaigns.@Jimnich1
