  • Strike Action 5th & 7th July

    Fri 07 Jul 2023

     

    Updated Information

    Strike Action 7th July 

     

    You may be aware from media coverage that there are two planned strike days, organized by the National Educational Union (NEU), on Wednesday 5th July and Friday 7th July 2023.

     

    The strike is happening because of a national dispute between the unions and the government and not because of any issues at our school.

     

    I am getting in touch to inform you that learning for some classes will be disrupted.

    If your child is in a class which is closed, where the teacher is taking industrial action, you will need to keep your child at home.

     

    If your child is in a class which is open, where the teacher is working that day, please ensure your child attends as usual. For these children it will be a normal school day.

     

    I will inform you as soon as possible if arrangements change further. I hope the letter is clear but if you need any further information, please call the school office for further clarification.
