Teachers in the uk have threatened to strike following plans to turn every school into an academy, which could lead to disruptions before the end of the summer.
Teachers have threatened to strike following plans to turn every school into an academy, which could lead to disruptions before the end of the summer.
The National Union of Teachers (NUT) is set to debate a motion on joint industrial action and it is expected to call on the Government to halt its academisation agenda.
The teaching union will call for a "dispute" with Nicky Morgan, Education Secretary, to seek more funding and improve pays and conditions.
The motion will also urge members to seek coordinated action with other unions and to look to have a "one-day strike before the end of summer term".
The last time there was a national teachers' strike was July 2014, when around 3,000 schools across the country fully closed their doors over pay.
