Membership subs payable from 1 January 2024
Included below are our subscription rates for 2024, along with payment periods and discounts for part-time and retired members. [1]
The cost for a teacher working full time is £18.36 a month or £220.36 a year and less for part-time teachers, depending on your contracted hours of work.
It is important to keep us informed of any changes to your circumstances. If you reduce or increase your hours, please email the Membership Team to ensure you are paying the correct subscription rate.
Introductory subscription offer for new members
Any established teacher joining the union for the first time, and providing bank details for direct debit payments at the point of joining, will only pay £1 per month for the first three months of membership before moving onto the appropriate subscription rate for hours worked. [2]
Supply teachers
Subscription rates for supply/substitute teacher members are based on the average number of hours a supply/substitute teacher tells us they work in any given year.
The NASUWT makes every effort to inform all members in writing every year of the forthcoming subscription rates for the following calendar year. Given that any reductions in subscription rates due to a member’s change in circumstances can only be made at the point the Union is informed of the change, subscription rate changes cannot be made retrospectively.
Special membership offers
For details of special membership offers, including offers for students, new teachers who have recently qualified and those on maternity leave, plus how to claim tax relief, please see our Subscriptions - Membership Offers page.
There are no hidden fees or local levies so you can rest assured that the NASUWT, the teachers’ union, is the best value for money.
