Dear Parents,
Industrial Action by the NUT teaching union and GMB
Union
Thursday 10th July 2014
As you will have heard in the news, the NUT and the
GMB unions have called on their members to take strike action, due to ongoing dispute over
pensions, pay and conditions.
The majority of our teachers are in the NUT and the
majority of our support staff (including kitchen staff) are in the GMB.
This is scheduled for Thursday 10th July 2014
For Industrial disputes we are not allowed to cover
the roles of staff striking, so unfortunately the governors and I have had to make the decision to CLOSE the
school to All pupils on that day.
I am very sorry for the inconvenience this will cause you
and have endeavoured to provide you with enough notice as I possibly can.
This also affects the planned non-uniform day, which will now be on the 9th July, but due to other events going on in school that day, unfortunately on
this occasion we cannot hold the parade.
The school will be open to all pupils on Friday 11th July 2014.
Yours sincerely
Mrs A. Lipski
Head Teacher
