NEU teacher members in England agree to accept progress made on pay and funding and to end industrial action

Education unions to hold joint industrial action campaign meetings in every school in England.

Gillian Keegan needs to come forward with a better pay and funding offer if she is to avert further strikes.

It is with a great sense of regret that the NEU has given the Secretary of State for Education notice of the fact the NEU will be re balloting members for further strike action.

Education unions to announce they will co-ordinate industrial action going forward.

NEU Northern Ireland announces strike on 26 April.

The five recognised teacher unions are calling on all teachers and school leaders to take a full day of strike on the 26 April.

73% of NEU teacher members in Wales who responded to the union’s consultation have voted to ACCEPT the pay offer put forward by the Welsh Government, and end the dispute.

An attempt by education unions involved in the industrial action dispute over pay and funding to break the current deadlock and move forward with talks with the government has been ignored.

We are absolutely ready to come to talks. What we cannot accept are pre-conditions which require us to pause strike action.

While no teacher wants to be on strike action we are grateful for the support of parents, and do not take it for granted.
