‘Teachers deserve fair pay’ – Sheehan

Sinn Féin MLA Pat Sheehan has said teachers’ employing authorities must work to reach a pay settlement.

Following confirmation that the main teaching unions have voted for strike action, the party’s education spokesperson said: 

“The teaching workforce play an invaluable role in the education of our children.

“Teachers deserve fair pay and conditions. 

“The Department of Education and the employing authorities need to engage meaningfully with teachers and their representative bodies to ensure a fair pay settlement can be reached.”
