National Strike Action
Dear Parents/Carers
National Strike Action
You may have seen on the news that one of the main teaching unions the NEU plans to take national strike action across 7 days in the coming two months. Due to the way that this has been arranged, all schools will be affected by four of these. For schools in the West Midlands, the four days are as follows:
· Wednesday 1st February 2023
· Wednesday 1st March 2023
· Wednesday 15th March 2023
· Thursday 16th March 2023
At this stage, there is no clarity on how much this will impact on Watermill School and I will be working closely in the coming days and weeks in collaboration with the union representative, the Local Authority and the Department for Education to develop a fuller understanding of how this will affect us as a school.
Once I have more information I will be in touch.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding on this matter
Yours sincerely
Jonathon May
Executive Headteacher
