Strike Action: From Thursday 15th June - Friday 23rd June

Dear Parent

Unfortunately, due to Strike Action called by the Unite Trade Union, our school will be unable to operate as normal from Thursday 15th June this week and ALL of next week.

Please note the following;

• From Thursday 15th June - Friday 23rd June (inclusive), there will be NO support staff available in school.  This inlcudes ALL Classroom Assistants, Supervisory Staff and School Crossing Patrol and office staff. 
• School will be OPEN for children as Teachers will be in school as normal.

However, the following has been cancelled due to lack of personnel

• No early bird breakfast club
• No 1-1 support or withdrawal groups
• No crossing patrol
• No office staff
• No WhatsApp, Messenger or Facebook available
• No Afterschool clubs

Please contact the school landline ONLY in the event of an emergency 02890323683.

This is NOT Industrial Action against the school. It is a protest against substantial cuts to the education budget across The North of Ireland. Our children and staff deserve better.

We would appreciate your support & cooperation at this time. 

This action is a last resort. No member of our staff takes strike action lightly. Apologies for any inconvenience. We will update you if any changes arise. 

Yours Faithfully

Miss Weir

Principal
