Industrial action – 01 February 2023

Wednesday 25 January 2023

Last week, we sent a couple of messages about the forthcoming strikes:

As you know, the National Education Union (NEU), one of the trade unions representing the teaching profession, has announced its intention to strike.

As communicated before, for schools in our region, the dates of the planned strikes are:

Mr Roundtree  and I have assessed the situation and the likely impact on our school. Under the current legal framework, workers have the right to change their mind about taking industrial action so we can’t be 100% certain; however, at the moment, we’re confident that we can remain open on Wednesday 01 February. As this is the first day of industrial action, we’ll reassess the situation for the other dates.

Thank you for your support and patience.
