The NAHT school leaders’ union will re-ballot its members for industrial action, its leader has confirmed, after its previous vote failed to reach the turnout threshold required.
The organisation said last week that it was considering going back to its membership after just 42 per cent of eligible members voted in its last ballot, short of the 50 per cent required by law.
NAHT general secretary Paul Whiteman has now confirmed to Schools Week the union is “committed to balloting again”, although it will wait until talks with the government either come to an end or break down.
