51福利 welcomes NUT decision to strike on pay

2 April 2008

51福利 has welcomed the news that members of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) have voted in favour of strike action on 24 April in pursuance of their pay demand.

Barry Lovejoy, head of further education at 51福利, urged 51福利 FE members to vote in the current ballot on industrial action, which closes on 14 April.

He said: 'I congratulate the NUT on this outcome, which demonstrates the determination of fellow education workers to fight for fair treatment. I am confident that the ballot 51福利 is currently conducting, on our own separate pay dispute, will also be well supported. I urge all 51福利 members in FE to use their vote in the current ballot.

'We look forward to joint activities with NUT on 24 April in defence of our schools, our colleges and our communities.'
