Asking for a friend who recently started working in a high complex needs schools and needs to join a union.

    If Unison is represented in the school with a Rep, I would go with them .

    Unison is a Public Sector union.

    GMB is a general union which covers any and all workers.

    Cost, for Unison, varies depending on salary, probably around £10 a month for a TA.
