The Singapore Teachers Union (STU) is the largest teachers organisation in Singapore and we have been around since 1946. Many decades have passed since then but our spirit and vigour to protect the interests of all education officers never wavered. A union with a fine tradition, STU has a colourful history behind its struggle in providing teachers with improvements in salaries and conditions of work. Not surprisingly, our strength has grown to include more than 12 000 teachers in Singapore.
