Industrial Action 26 April

Dear Parents 

You may have heard through the media of the full day of strike action by the five teaching unions in Northern Ireland on Wednesday 26 April 2023. This will impact on all schools. We have carried out a Risk Assessment and the Board of Governors have determined that the school will be closed for all pupils on Wednesday 26 April 2023 for the full day. School will resume as normal on Thursday.

We appreciate that this will cause difficulties for many parents in relation to childcare but ask that you are understanding of the real concerns of teachers and school leaders which is going unnoticed at present. Staff will lose pay for the strike day.

If developments are made and the strike is cancelled, we will let you know as soon as possible.
