Undeb Cenedlaethol Athrawon Cymru (meaning 'National Union of Teachers of Wales'; commonly referred to as UCAC), is a trade union for teachers and lecturers in Wales. It was formed in December 1940, when a number of teachers in Wales felt that the teaching unions which they belonged to, did not give due respect to the Welsh language. The union performs all the functions of a teaching union - negotiating the salary of members, campaigning for better working conditions, supporting members. Its administration is conducted through the medium of the Welsh language. Throughout its history, UCAC has campaigned for Welsh-medium education and an independent education system for Wales.
The union’s main objectives at its inception in 1940 were: 1. To ensure a better education system for Wales 2. To protect the interests of the individual teacher
It is affiliated to the UK Trades Union Congress (since 1994), since under current TUC rules it is not permissible to affiliate only to TUC Cymru.
