Insurance v Teaching Union

Options
Dear All,
I have been a teacher for many years now and over the last few years I have become disillusioned with the role teaching unions play.
I curently pay them almost £20 a month for their "service" and "benefits".
I have deicded that if I can I will leave the union I am a member of and take out an insurance product.
Problem is - what insurance product? Who offers the type of insurance I would need?
Maybe there isn't an equivalent.

If anyone can offer advice that would be greatly appreciated :smile:

    If you clarify either what they do or what you want the insurance to do it would help.

    Legal expenses on your home insurance covers a variety of legal disputes such as employment tribunals etc but wouldnt help you with your annual pay increase negotiations etc.
  • Have you considered joining Edapt? They are apolitical and independent but a teachers union.
