Teaching unions agree to action
SCHOOLS across Wales face a term of disruption after two of the biggest teaching unions agreed to a programme of industrial action.
Members of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) and NASUWT have backed taking action short of a strike in an ongoing row over pay, conditions and pensions.
Action will start on Wednesday, September 26, and continue until the dispute is resolved.
Chris Keates, general secretary of NASUWT, said: "The Secretary of State for Education (Michael Gove) was put on notice in May that he could address teachers' concerns and avoid the possibility of further industrial action.
