NASUW Report Increase Payouts
NASUW reported that over £8.5m was paid out last year with injuries and assaults on teachers. Increasingly more and more of these cases are being settled before they make it to court.
Schools Should Take Adequate Precautions
The money appears mainly to come from Local Education Authorities, governing bodies and from schools themselves. The National Union of Teachers (NUT) suggests that in order to prevent accidents on school premises schools should take adequate precautions in the first place.
