Dear Parents/Carers,

 

You will be aware that school leaders’ union NAHT Cymru will now engage in industrial action short of strike and NEU is currently taking discontinuous strike action. Whilst the unions have collectively tried to minimise the direct impact on children and young people, the ability of our school to maintain all of our usual provisions has been affected.

 

As a result of strike action being taken by the National Education Union (NEU) on 1st February 2023, and following discussions with the Chair of Governors, the impact on our school will be as follows:

 

Closed to pupils but open to non-striking staff.

 

Further industrial action is planned on 14th February, 15th March and 16th March. We will write to you again a week before these dates with a further update.

The teaching staff and I want to see an end to this period of dispute and a return to normal school life as soon as possible.
 

Yours faithfully,
 

Mrs Bev Phillips
 

Headteacher
