ENGLAND’S four education unions have announced unprecedented plans to co-ordinate national strike action over plummeting take-home pay, real-terms school funding cuts and crippling workloads.
The National Education Union (NEU) and NASUWT, alongside school leaders’ unions NAHT and ASCL, pledged today to unite and send Tory Education Secretary Gillian Keegan a “clear signal that our dispute is not going away.”
The dramatic development, which coincided with the opening day of NAHT’s two-day annual conference in Telford, followed strike action by NEU members on Thursday.
