Parents Unhappy About Teachers Strike
Many parents faced a dilemma on October 17 when teachers nationwide went on strike. Thousands of schools were closed or partially closed as a result. Concerned parents were forced to look for a way to take care of their children during work hours.
Teachers from a number of schools went on strike due to the proposals by the government to change their pensions. This means that many of them will have to work longer hours, pay bigger sums into pension funds and eventually receive less once they retire.
Are Strikes Damaging To Pupils’ Education?
Many concerned parents view the industrial action of teachers as a threat to their children’s consistency of learning. A lot of them had to turn to expensive childcare, especially parents whose children still go to primary school.
Secondary and primary school teacher jobs appear to be under attack at the moment. The plans to link a teacher’s pay to the performance in the classroom are viewed as an aggressive step taken by the Secretary of State for Education. Currently Michael Gove refuses to start negotiations with the teachers’ unions to improve conditions.
However, not all teachers have gone on strike, and a number of them have decided to remain in the classrooms in order to avoid any disruptions to the learning process. The educators who have decided to stay in schools show deep dedication to their profession, which is often viewed as challenging.
Due to the tensions between teachers and the government, secondary and primary school teacher jobs are being abandoned. The frustration related to working conditions, an increase in workload, reduced pensions and the new pay system all contribute to the teachers being dissatisfied in their position. It seems schools in the UK are facing a serious challenge.
