Headteachers could join new strikes likely to shut schools across England

NAHT is joining other three main education unions in asking members to formally approve action over pay

Headteachers could join a fresh wave of strike action likely to close schools across England after the National Association of Head Teachers said it would ballot its members on industrial action over teachers’ pay.

The NAHT joins the other three main education unions in asking its members to formally approve strikes after a motion to hold a ballot was approved by its executive at its annual conference in Telford.
