MEET OTHERS IN YOUR POSITION
WEDS 1 NOV, 4PM,
Deptford Town Hall, Room 109
This meeting of the UCU branch is aimed at part-time lecturers, Associate lecturers, and Graduate Trainee Tutors. A short survey held last spring term indicated different experiences, pay, hours, and ways of treating teaching staff. While we found at Goldsmiths some good practices, the opposite was also true.
In this meeting we aim to hear and share experiences in order to improve teaching conditions at Goldsmiths. We will discuss work pressure, preparation hours, marking, explain the CHC that comes with the contract, and conditions surrounding teaching.
This meeting is organised by your anti-causalisation representatives at the GUCU.
UCU membership is free for PhD students who teach. join at: https://www.ucu.org.uk/join or email gucu-admin@gold.ac.uk for more info
