The Association seeks the help of its members, and indeed any concerned teachers, to protest to MPs and MSPs about the Government proposals to increase the pension age from 60 to 65.

The Association urges its members to write to their MP and MSP, and a sample letter and "key points" guide are available for download below. Whilst simply downloading the sample letter and sending this off would be good, it would be much more helpful for members to use the "key points" to compose their own letter. Such a letter will impact much more on an MP/MSP than a "copy letter" will.

A sample is available for download below as  are the  key points. To download right click on the link and select "Save Target as".
