Dear parents/ carers,

As you will probably be aware, next Thursday 27th April and Tuesday 2nd May have been identified by the National Education Union (NEU) as the next days of industrial action in their pay and funding campaign.

Members of the NEU are not obliged to let us know in advance of their intentions, but our staff have been co-operative and kind enough to offer this information so that you know what our situation is and that if needed, you can make alternative arrangements for childcare for the day.

The classes so far where the teacher has given advance notice of strike action is:

Thursday 27th April

Classes that will be closed:

Year 3 Class 8

Year 3 Class 9

Year 5 Class 13

All other classes will remain open.

Tuesday 2nd May

Nursery 

Reception Class 2

Year 2 Class 6

Year 2 Class 7 (closed afternoon only. Please collect children at 1pm)

Year 3 Class 8

Year 3 Class 9

Year 4 Class 10

Year 5 Class 13

If there are any changes or any other teachers decide to strike we will let you know as soon as possible.

Staff appreciate the inconvenience the action will cause and for that send their apologies. We would like to assure our school community that this is not a decision our teachers have taken lightly.
