History [ edit ]
Striking teachers and public sector workers march down the Kingsway, London, flanked by police on 17 June, as part of the 2011 United Kingdom anti-austerity protests .
The origins of ATL go back to 1884 when 180 women met to create the Association of Assistant Mistresses (AAM). These women worked in schools founded for higher education of girls . Their concern was primarily for the pupils. However, in 1921, the AAM appointed representatives to the newly formed Burnham Committee on Salaries in Secondary Schools .
1891 saw the formation of the Association of Assistant Masters in Secondary Schools (AMA). Its purpose was to protect and improve the conditions of service of secondary teachers. Between 1899 and 1908, it played an influential part in obtaining security of tenure for assistant teachers through the Endowed Schools Act .
Then in 1978 AAM and AMA merged to form the Assistant Masters and Mistresses Association (AMMA ), with a membership of approximately 75,000. The name was changed in 1993 to the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL).
ATL affiliated to the TUC in 1999. It resigned from the Irish Congress of Trade Unions in 2015. In January 2011, the Association for College Management merged into ATL.[4] National Union of Teachers in 2017, forming the National Education Union .[5]
