De leraren bedreigen meer stakingen

Donderdag, 24 April, 2008

De leraren hebben verdere industriële actie als nationale staking bedreigd die tot 9.500 scholen over Engeland en Wales op Donderdag wordt geraakt.

De leden van de Nationale Unie van Leraren zeiden zij „geen schuld“ na de staking voelden die meer dan één miljoen kinderen zag die vanaf lessen worden gedraaid.

Sommige gepost buiten scholen in protest bij de 2.45 percenten van de Overheid betalen aanbieding dit jaar, die zij eisen een echt-termijnen besnoeiing na een reusachtige stijging van de kosten van levensonderhoud is.

Anderen marcheerden door steden met inbegrip van Londen, Birmingham, Cardiff, Manchester en Liverpool als deel van officiële verzamelingen.

De activisten zeiden zij om bereid waren opnieuw op te stappen tenzij de Overheid aan hun vraag naar meer loon instortte. Één zei een andere staking kon plaatsvinden deze termijn, hoewel het om onwaarschijnlijk wordt verondersteld te zijn.

De leden van andere klaslokaalvakbonden, die weigerden om de staking te steunen, zeiden het een terugkeer aan jaren '80-stijl militantisme kon aankondigen, toen een golf van industriële actie wijdverspreide wrok onder ouders veroorzaakte.

John Dunford, algemene secretaresse van de Vereniging van School en de Leiders van de Universiteit, zei: „Deze staking zet het het onderwijsberoep in een hoek dat wij niet binnen 20 jaar'.“ zijn geweest

Ballen van ED, de scholensecretaresse, zeiden de timing van de staking - dagen na de vakantie van Pasen en aangezien de leerlingen voor examens voorbereidingen treffen - „ongelukkig“ was.

Bezoekend een school in Dartford, Kent, zei M. Balls: „Ik denk niet het door de meeste leraren.“ heeft gesteund

Slechts één in 10 van land 400.000 plus leraren stemde eigenlijk te slaan, zei de Overheid.

De verder onderwijsuniversiteiten werden ook gedwongen om op verminderde tijdschema's na leden van de Universiteit te sluiten of te werken en de Unie van de Universiteit sloot zich aan bij de staking.

De leden van de NOOT van manschappen drongen aan zij bereid zijn om opnieuw op te stappen.

Tot 7.000 leden van de NOOT, UCU en de Openbare en Commerciële unie van de Diensten, marcheerden door Westminster.

Alex Kenny, een afgevaardigde van de NOOT van Oost-Londen, zei: „Wij sluiten geen verdere stakingen uit en konden inderdaad een andere één zien deze termijn. Als de Overheid niet deze tijdronde luistert die wij enkel moeten helemaal opnieuw doen het zal. Als de andere het onderwijsvakbonden beginnen stemmend hun leden over een verdere staking toen zal de NOOT het zelfde doen en de leraren zullen.“ slaan

Christine Spragg, a teacher at Andrew Ewing Primary School, Hounslow, west London, added: “Everything is going up except our wage. Unless it changes we will all come out here in force again.”

Teachers picketed the City Academy School, Bristol, to stop staff working.

Keith George, a science teacher, said: “We have already turned several teachers away. It has been very satisfying that our message appears to be getting through.

“If parents want the best teaching for their children then this strike is essential.”

Paulette North, the NUT’s assistant divisional secretary, said: “We do not feel guilty at all. In fact we feel that if we do not have these strikes then we will lose even more teachers than we are already.”

Despite union guidance requesting teachers not to picket outside schools, some members also protested at the entrance to Lawnswood School, Leeds.

Dennis Gibbons, an NUT official from Leeds, said: “There is a recruitment crisis looming in the teaching profession.”

Phillippa Arnell, an English teacher at Park Community School, Leigh Park, Havant, Hants, said 21 NUT members were on strike - a third of the teaching staff. Lessons were being covered by support staff, she said.

“I did feel guilty when I explained to my pupils about going on strike but we just want to be treated fairly,” she said.

    It is unfortunate that it has come too this especially at the time when so many are concentrating on exam work , but i feel that the teachers had no choice in the matter . The price of living in the U.K is rising at an incredible fast rate , just look at the price of fuel and see how much your food bill has risen just in the last year . While there has been some support for teachers in the media , most including the government has spent the best part of the day turning the striking teachers into self-centred villians of the peace , while most M.P.s stating that they are themselves only on 60k a year yet they are entitled to EXPENSES of over 100k a year taking them so far away from the U.K.s comming CREDIT CRUNCH that the price rises will not greatly affect them , check that out with a teachers starting salary of between 20k to 25k a year and see who you think will suffer more . Before people start saying that teachers have a duty of care and cite the various holidays that they have as perks of the job . Well so do M.P.s and just how many days off do they have in their working year . A strike is the last drastic action from those who feel that they have been abandoned by government and i have not heard of 1 teacher saying that they took any pleasure in this action today . I FULLY SUPPORT THIS AND ANY OTHER STRIKE ACTION!!! .

    P.S. The teachers starting salary is based upon an average over the entire U.K. and i believe that most teachers actualy earn far below the given estimated figure ! .
