Breach of Contract?

We have had a few school reps contact us to check whether taking the action would constitute a breach of their contract.

Just to reassure you, that is why both the NUT and NASUWT have conducted ballots for industrial action in accordance with the law. Teachers, as with other workers in the public and private sector, are entitled to take lawful industrial action in furtherance of a legitimate trade dispute (in this case with the Secretary of State).

Any member of the NUT working in a maintained school, academy or 6th form college is covered by the ballot and can participate in the action. If anyone advises you diferently, please contact us asap.
