More strikes could be on the cards for Northern Ireland’s schools after the summer break as another leading teaching union confirmed it will ballot members on industrial action.
The Irish National Teachers’ Organisation (INTO) says it has no option but to seek a mandate for industrial action from the membership in response to the continued lack of progress in achieving a decent and fair pay uplift for teachers and in the face of the worsening cost of living crisis.
It comes as members of the Unite Union who work for the Education Authority (EA) have been on strike in recent weeks over pay disputes.
