Industrial action looked set to intensify on Monday after Britain's largest teaching union announced a series of strike days over pay next month in England and Wales.
The union announced a national strike day on February 1, followed by a series of more regional strikes over six days in February and March.But it will cause immediate concern among parents, who have seen their children’s education severely disrupted in recent years by the coronavirus pandemic.
Members of the Educational Institute of Scotland union on Wednesday began 16 days of rolling stoppages until February 6. There have been previous strikes in December and earlier this month. This week nurses in England, Wales and Northern Ireland were also due to resume strike action on Wednesday and Thursday.
Paramedics and ambulance workers are set to decide this week on further strike action, heaping pressure on the state-run National Health Service as it battles to recover from Covid delays to treatment and a staffing crisis.All rights reserved.
