More strikes could be on the cards for Northern Ireland’s schools in the new academic year as Ireland’s largest teaching union confirmed its members will protest over the prolonged erosion of their pay and increasing levels of "unmanageable" workload.
The Irish National Teachers’ Organisation has warned thousands of teachers could either take strike action or work to rule in early autumn.
The INTO says its members, along with its colleagues on the NI Teachers’ Council, have been campaigning and lobbying political parties since April in a bid to have the issue of teachers’ pay placed firmly on their agendas.
