Hundreds of thousands of teachers and school leaders will be re-balloted for strikes from today as the long-running pay dispute with the government continues.
The National Education Union (NEU) began its latest ballot of around 300,000 teacher members in England this morning. It will run until July 28.
Headteachers’ union NAHT has also opened a fresh ballot for industrial action, which will close on July 31.
It comes after members of both unions rejected the government’s offer on pay and working conditions for teachers and leaders.
