The East Sussex Branch of the NEU is responsible for representing members in negotiation with ESCC, and Academy Trusts, school and college governing bodies. We have access to advice and support from the Regional Secretary and her team at the Regional Office, which includes a solicitor and from headquarters staff. The Division is made up of two local districts through which members join the Union and become part of the East Sussex and national membership. These are the Hastings and Rother District and the Lewes, Eastbourne and Wealden District.
