Parents and children gathered in EMbankment Gardens
and some climbed on one of the trees
Some came with banners with the name of their school
Placards called for fair funding for schools
There were teachers with NUT flags
and a lot of Fair Funding balloons

NUT General Secretary Kevin Courtney holds one end of the banner 'Invest
in our Future'
And the march begins

at the front of the march
Most people had come with children
People shouted as they passed Downing St
It was a short march to Parliament Square for a rally and a picnic
Dawn Butler, Labour MP for Brent and Shadow Minister for Diverse Communities
Teachers, parents and others spoke at the rally and children signed
a giant letter to Education Minister Justine Greening
'Choose Funding'
