Unite the union workplace reps vote to call off strike action scheduled for tomorrow 

Decision comes after ‘meaningful’ progress made in talks between the four education trade unions and the employer side

Unite the union workplace reps met this afternoon and voted overwhelmingly to call off scheduled strike action tomorrow [Tuesday June 4] following receipt of an opening draft offer for workers from the Education Authority and Department of Education this afternoon.

The decision follows a similar one on Saturday by Unite workplace reps to call off today’s [Monday 3 June] strike action to provide space for negotiations.

    some insight to what’s been agreed or discussed before this decision was made would be appreciated,can Unite also make it evidently clear that those striking about pay and grading aren’t just SEN support staff, it’s all support staff, nursery assistants, classroom assistants, canteen staff, cleaners, building supervisors and all the other people who keep the wheel turning for peanuts at schools,a lot of parents seem to think strikes only involved SEN assistants,we all work with SEN children in all our settings
