More than 100 members of staff at Tyne Coast College are to go on strike next week amid an ongoing pay dispute.
Staff members will be picketing outside the main entrances of the South Shields site on Monday (June 5) and Wednesday (June 7) between 7.30am and 9.30am. Lessons for pupils cancelled altogether, however the strike action will have no impact on students taking their exams.
It comes after 94% of University and College Union members voted to back industrial action, which is over the 2022/23 pay claim, following multiple real-term wage cuts and a recent pay freeze.
