The Professional Educators Union (PEU) is a national trade union that’s proudly South African. What drives us is to organise teachers – the educators of the nation, regardless of colour, creed and gender – and represent them in labour-related grievances and during collective bargaining to ease the pressure that comes with the nature of the teaching profession.

PEU aims to make teachers’ lives easier so that they continue empowering the youth with the most important tool – education – without stress or worry. PEU is a a member of the Education Labour Relations Council (ELRC) and the Public Service Coordinating Bargaining Council (PSCBC).
