INTERNATIONAL Workers’ Day gives us cause to celebrate the role workers play in all aspects of society, in countries all over the globe.

It gives us the chance to mark their struggles, celebrate their victories and look at the work we all have to do to achieve justice and equality for workers all around the world.

In education, our struggles as workers matter, not least because they help determine the quality of education provided by our schools and colleges to our children.
