The head of a leading teachers’ union has urged employers to resolve a dispute over pay as Northern Ireland schools face strike disruption after the Easter break.
Dr Graham Gault, the interim Director of NAHT(NI), was speaking following confirmation that strike action will take place during the last week of April and early into May.
The Education Authority said it has been notified of strike action from 26 April to 1 May and from 3 May to 8 May, which is expected to disrupt a number of EA home to school transport (yellow bus) services, some school meal services and the availability of non-teaching staff, particularly in Special Schools.
