24 June 2024Techer's Dispute Continues

The NASUWT, the Teachers' Union, are in dispute with Northumberland County Council over its broken promise to protect teachers from job losses following the planned closure of all three Berwick partnership middle schools.  The union has made it clear that their dispute is not about trying to get the decision to close the schools reversed, but they are trying to get the authority to put in place sufficient measures to mitigate any compulsory job losses.

NASUWT feel that recent discussions with HR have been positive and therefore they have not arranged strike action for next week (week beginning 24 June).  

However, the NASUWT has given notice of potential strike action on Wednesday 3rd July and Wednesday 10th July - details as soon as possible.  They really appreciate the many messages of support and solidarity in support of picket lines.  

Please can Trade Council members make a note of the dates and try to support the union if at all possible.
