Dear Parent
As you will be aware the National Union of Teachers (NUT), Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL), National Association of Headteachers (NAHT), National Association of School and Union of Women teachers (NASUWT), Unison and GMB have voted to hold a national strike on November 30th. This action is being taken as part of a campaign against proposals to make changes to public sector pensions provisions going forwards.
We have undertaken a risk assessment based on the number of staff that will be participating in the strike on the 30th November and a decision has been made to close the school. I am sure you will appreciate the health, safety and wellbeing of our pupils is paramount. I am sorry if this causes any inconvenience.
We will be open as normal on Thursday 1 December 2011 and it is important that your child attends school.
Reminder – We will be closed for staff training on Friday 2 December 2011.
Yours sincerely
C Hindmarch
Headteacher
